windows NEEDS acpi.
plus your config is not correct about booting from CDROM iso image.

here is a working conf file for installation of windows:

name = "winsrv2003R2"
builder = "hvm"
memory = "1024"
disk = [ 'file:/xen/domU/ISOs/einsrv2003R2.iso,hdc:cdrom,r','file:/xen/domU/winsrv2003R2.img,hda,w', ]
boot = "d"
vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3e:3f:a9:16, bridge=xenbr0', ]
vnc=1
vncunused=1
acpi=1
apic=1
device_model = "/usr/lib64/xen/bin/qemu-dm"
kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
vcpus=1
on_reboot   = 'restart'
on_crash    = 'restart'

after install remove the boot entry qand hte iso image entry:

name = "winsrv2003R2"
builder = "hvm"
memory = "1024"
disk = [ 'file:/xen/domU/winsrv2003R2.img,hda,w', ]
vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3e:3f:a9:16, bridge=xenbr0', ]
vnc=1
vncunused=1
acpi=1
apic=1
device_model = "/usr/lib64/xen/bin/qemu-dm"
kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
vcpus=1
on_reboot   = 'restart'
on_crash    = 'restart'

HI all. I use rhel 5.1 server x86_64, I create a configure file

After I run "xm create win2003", there is the output of "xm list":

The installation program of win2003 cannot be started, the CPU usage
is 0, I don't know why?
