Has anybody run QEMU in Windows XP? Is there any way to run kernel level virtualization without administrator privileges?

I have run it in XP but I am pretty sure you will need admin rights but I have not tried it with user rights but I doubt it would run.

Regular QEMU runs fine with user rights, It's the kernel level additions that I'm asking about.

Well thats the problem. Any thing that is kernel level needs administrator rights as it should be.
