If I understood you correctly, you are using multi boot on your computer, and now you want to run your existing Ubuntu installation inside a virtual machine.
Apparently, this is possible with VMware. See if this is of any help to you. From this second hyperlink:
Many users install VMware Workstation on a dual-boot or multiple-boot computer so they can run one or more of the existing operating systems in a virtual machine. If you are doing this, you may want to use the existing installation of an operating system rather than reinstall it in a virtual machine.

So, let me get this straight. You have Ubuntu and Windows installed on your machine. You want to know if you can use Windows and start your existing Ubuntu installation in a virtual machine. Is that it? – None – 2013-02-22T10:57:37.937
