This is just a guess here, but what about puttin an ioemu:hda instead of just 
hda.

So the line would read:

disk = 
['file:/windows/xenwin2008.img,ioemu:hda,w','file:/windows/winxpSP2.iso,ioemu:hdc:cdrom,r']

It was my understanding that the ioemu is required for all HVM windows domain 
disks (whether CDROM or HDD).

Also, what version of xen are you running?
