KVM/qemu are essentially one thing these days. qemu by itself would be
software emulation and probably very slow. With kvm it is the fastest
option around. Windows runs perfectly fine on kvm. We have XP, 2003
and 2008 running on KVM here. It works great.
No idea about xen. It always looked to ackward for me to even look at it.
