You can have as many windows domUs as you want, I have 14 of them running right now.
How did you copy the DomU file or partition itself?
If you're copying a windows image to a new machine you need to sysprep it first, after that you can dd from one volume to another.

For example, dd if=wintest1.liquidweb.com of=wintest2.liquidweb.com bs=1M

As long as the two volumes are the same size it should work fine. You can even mount them using ntfs-3g and make changes to the SIF file if you need to.
