I do not think "emacs -nw" will work in all situations. I believe there 
should be a GUI version of emacsclient.exe. Does "emacs -nw" work if you 
use the GUI version?

Note: I added a GUI version to gnuclient.exe which I called 
gnuclientw.exe. The purpose of this was to avoid unnecessary console 
windows.
