Further details would be needed:
- What version (exactly) of Xen are you using?
- What version of Windows are you using?
- What does your VM config file look like (please remove the comments
and blank lines before posting!)?

You may want to look inside /var/log/xen/qemu*.log (cat `ls -lt
/var/log/xen/qemu*.log|head -1` is one way to do that). 

Also look at the last few lines of /var/log/xend{-debug}.log to see if
it contains anything useful... 

Gernerally, it works to install windows on an Athlon64/Opteron/Turion64
based machine, but there's all sorts of things that can go wrong in the
process, most importantly "Not using the right version of Xen".
