Forgive my morbid curiosity but why are you using Xwindows?
Seconded. If you have a putty ssh-session open, why bother pushing a dtterm/xterm/whatever term anyway? Putty does exactly the same - and a lot more - than any standard term?
Anyway, Putty isn't an X server: you need a combination of an x11-forwarding capable ssh client (like putty) combined with a win32 X server (like as Grippo mentionned Exceed) to be able to get "graphical" stuff from your unix box displayed locally. Thus to conclude, without an X server, it's impossible to get xterm to run on your desktop.
Cygwin also contains an X server (xfree86 iirc) btw, so that might be an option for you? (although in that case the thing about why push a remote console if you have a local xterm/terminal anyway)
