I downloaded qemu for windows here:
https://qemu.weilnetz.de/w64/
And copied all the files from my vmware to windows, and ran this:
"c:\Program Files\qemu\qemu-system-arm.exe" -m 256 -M versatilepb -kernel vmlinuz-3.16.0-4-versatile -initrd initrd.img-3.16.0-4-versatile -hda armdisk.img -append "root=/dev/sda1"
It works, but it honestly is slower here then running it inside of vmware.
Compiling a simple c file takes 1.5s when inside VMware, vs 11 seconds in qemu for windows.
