Windows is not available for Xen.  (The way Xen works is that the
operating system kernel is modified; Microsoft did do a research port
of one version of Windows to Xen, but it wasn't made available.)

I think you'll find you need one of the full virtualisation products
that can run unmodified operating systems; the best known of these is
VMware, which in its "workstation" version can use Linux or Windows
as the host operating system.
