The root servers won't do you any good unless your server is recursive. The root servers don't know the answers, they just refer you to a server that does. That server probably won't know either, so it too will refer you... and so on until you eventually get the answer.
See
http://www.ntcanuck.com/ for a recursive server that runs on NT-based Windows. It imagine it is supplied with a "hint" file containing the root server names and IP addresses. But in case not:
