Had a similar problem. Copied Mysql/data files from wampp mysql/data directory to xampp mysql/data directory. After the copy is done, simply restart xampp mysql service and the tables and data should appear on phpmyadmin

Just copy your MySQL data from the MySQL/Data directory into the XAMPP MySQL/Data directory -- correct me if I am wrong but this is what I did on windows with WAMP.
