Hi,

in order to get through the Windows installation you need to press 'F5' during the initial setup phase and select a 'Generic PC' platform. Then setup will continue and finish (also be patient
   when installing Windows as the installation will take quite some time).
There's a step by step procedure in a draft document I pulled together at
   http://et.redhat.com/~jmh/docs/Installing_RHEL5_Virt.pdf

   With RHEL5.1 Windows installations will work better :)

kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
builder= 'hvm'
name = "Win2k3ctx"
memory = "1024"
maxmem = "1024"
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/xvmvol/win2k3vol,hda,w', 'file:/tmp/1.iso,hdc:cdrom,r' ]
vif = [ 'type=ioemu, mac=00:16:3e:af:b1:03, bridge=xenbr0' ]
vcpus = 1
on_reboot = 'restart'
on_crash = 'destroy'
device_model = '/usr/' + arch_libdir + '/xen/bin/qemu-dm'
boot = "acd"
sdl = 1
vnc = 0
#vfb = [ 'type=vnc,vncunused=1' ]
localtime = 1
