Thread-topic: Xen on a prebuilt Windows machine.

I am wondering if it is possible to take a machine with windows on it, install Linux (keeping windows), set up Xen, then run the build of windows already installed on the system as a guest through Xen ? I want to keep the data and settings of the windows build, but I want to run it through Xen so I can run Linux at the same time. I know its much easier just to start from a blank hard drive but I need to know if there is a way of implementing it as described above?

Any help would be greatly appreciated
