If the file queue that other posters have mentioned isn't what you're 
looking for (for example, if you are wanting to render thousands of images)
you can still use batch files with Windows commands, and pvengine.exe still
supports the same command-line arguments that the DOS version supports.

In short, do it just like you would for DOS, but give it the name of the
Windows version of POV.
