Have you looked at AMQP implementations?  RabbitMQ seems to have a Windows
download.  But normally you would run the queue on its on machine (or
machines) so might as well use Linux for that.  I suspect the Windows
RabbitMQ is not as well used, but that's just a guess.

It seems like there's some discussion around about if a database makes a
good queue.  Grated, on the RabbitMQ site, so with a bias, but here's one:

A bit dated, but this is often cited when someone is comparing options:
