How are you entering the pinyin? If you are using the Windows Input 
Methods, they will only work if you set your "Language for non-Unicode 
programs" on the Advanced tab of Regional Settings to Chinese (or maybe 
its the first language setting on the Regional Options tab that matters, 
I don't remember exactly). If you are using leim (Emacs's internal input 
methods), it should just work.
