Note that trying to run:
 * a modern-ish graphical OS like Windows
 * using pure emulation (since it's x86-on-arm, not x86-on-x86)
 * on a fairly slow host CPU like the Raspberry Pi series

is probably going to be too slow and unworkable to do whatever
it was you wanted to do, even though you should in theory
be able to get it working in some sense.

I would recommend trying to find a tutorial that describes
how to do this on the raspi and which hopefully will also
provide the author's opinion on how useable the result is.
