Erm sounds like the windoze machine have two subnets on the same NIC
which IMHO is a really dodgy practice. If this is the case you would
need to add a alias on the NIC to make

eth0:0 192.168.0.x 255.255.255.0
eth0:1 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (internet settings).

BTW this is a EXTREMELY dodgy way to setup a network
