I have absolutely no idea what the problem is you're encountering. I have
the
rewrite running on windows 7 with absolutely no problems. However, any
problems you encounter will have to be fixed, as you are probably not the
only one to encounter them ;-)
Please see

for
an elaborate guide on what to do if you want to develop the rewrite on
windows -- this should also work for normal users, but takes more effort
than I think is necessary.
Anyway -- I would appreciate any information on the exact problem you have
encountered!
