I'm not sure how XenServer allocates domU storage (files? LVM?) as I
never use it (I use RHEL, bundled Xen), but this thread might help

As an alternative, I believe you should be able to add aditional disk
and set Windows to use Dynamic Disk
(http://support.microsoft.com/kb/309044)

Be sure to backup domU first.
