Coming in from the side here...

Why not use XEN and have asterisk in a xen VM, which some people here
claim to have working, and then have a second VM for windows. I have a
windows XP Pro VM running under xen just in case I need to use a windows
based application, or whatever, from time to time... It works well for
me, I haven't tried asterisk in a VM as yet though... but might one day...

Regards,
Adam
