Ok, you are missing a few things here.  One, you need to pass natd the 
-dynamic switch in the natd_flags field in rc.conf

Second, you need a divert rule for natd in your firewall ruleset.

ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via xl0

Third, if you are going to tell windows to obtain a IP automatically, 
then you need to have a dhcp server running that will feed it usable 
info.  ie you are going to have to run one on your freebsd machine.  
Perhaps until you get natd working you should configure windows 
manually.
