Use i-Installer installed teTeX as a basis, and use it as a basis.

In i-Installer choose "New from URL…" in the file menu, and paste in 
the following URL:
     http://scripts.sil.org/pub/packages/xetex.ii2

This should install and configure the latest release (and make it easy 
to update the software to the latest release, as XeTeX is a work in 
progress).
