I have a windows server that I want to push to UEC. It is not currently virtualized. How do I convert it or do I need to build a new image just for this?

You might wanna try with plain old dd like http://rwmj.wordpress.com/2009/10/13/poor-mans-p2v/

Or another option might be to install a fresh Windows VM, then use a Windows tool to backup/restore the original server

Try googling for p2v Windows kvm
