I have no idea on this, maybe others can help here.

There's a package you'll need to install in order to have kqemu (or
any other kernel driver) compiled:
http://gobolinux.org/download/kernel/linux-2.6.17.11-smp-headers.tar.bz2

Download and uncompress it at /Files/Compile/Sources. You'll hopefully
be able to compile kqemu after that.

There are some known problems with Windows XP on QEMU. IIRC the first
boot after its installation must be done in safe mode in order to
install a service pack. Google can help you better than me here :-)
