Assuming the disk images, etc are already on the execute host in
c:\condor_vm, you'd just include the following in your submit file:

transfer_input_files = file://c:condor_vm/Condor_VM-x86_64.vmx,
file://c:/condor_vm/Condor_VM-x86_64.nvram,
file://c:/condor_vm/Condor_VM-x86_64.vmdk

You'll also want a filetransfer plugin, like
http://sheldon.rcac.purdue.edu/condor/plugin/filetransfer.pl

which means you'll need to set the following (or similar) on the execute node:

FILETRANSFER_PLUGINS = $(RELEASE_DIR)/plugin/filetransfer.pl


Hope this helps!
