The netmask of the VPN interface should be 255.255.0.0. Is this the case?  If
you have a fireall on the Windows machines, make sure it allows all traffic on
the VPN interface.  You can also start tinc with the options -d5 -D, this will
not start it as a service but run in the console. You can then see what happens
when you try tracert or anything else via the VPN.
