That is cloning the disk rather than the whole machine.

Do a search of the complete disk?  I believe that by default VirtualBox 
will create disk images in .VirtualBox\machine-name.  There's a setting 
somewhere in Preferences to alter the default location; I use this to 
place disk images on a non-system disk.

I am not confident about exporting XP for use by VMware Player.  This 
does work with Windows Server 2008, which has some ability to recognise 
different hardware at boot time, but XP?  It might be easier to reinstall 
it, time consuming though that may be to get all the patches in place.
