There is a file called XServers-NonUNIX.txt. It can be ftped from 

export.lcs.mit.edu[18.24.0.12] in /contrib/XServers-NonUNIX.txt.Z
ftp.uwp.edu[131.210.1.4] in /pub/misc/XServers-NonUNIX.txt
msdos.archive.umich.edu[141.211.164.153] in
		msdos/info/XServers-NonUNIX.txt and
		msdos/info/xnonunix.zip

For PCs it lists following servers

1. DESQview/X
2. HCL-eXceed/W
3. IBM X/Windows
4. MicroX
5. PC DECwindows Motif V3.0
6. PC X-Windows
7. PC Xsight
8. PC-XView
9. SAGE 1280 Adapter and X Windows Display Server
10. TeemTalk-X
11. Term-X
12. Vista-eXceed
13. X-One
14. X11/AT
15. X Appeal
16. XVision
17. Xinet X-Station
18. Xnth
19. XoftWare

of which 2, 8, 12, 13, 14 and 16 are claimed to be Windows based. I think,
you can run Windows under DesqView/X.
