Repository creation is usually done on the server (with svnadmin create).
If you have a TortoiseSVN installed on the server, too, it's OK to
use TSVN to create the repository via VNC. Since your server is a
windows machine, you can use your workstation's TSVN to create the
repository on an UNC path if one is available.

It's easier to do it this way:
1. Check out the whole newly created repository to your machine
2. Create the trunk, branches, tags structure in your local WC and
add the these directories.
3. Copy your sources to trunk and add them.
4. If necessary, set properties on files and directories.
5. commit
Now you have set up your repository completely in a single revision.
Usually, the TSVN->adds in steps 2 and 3 can be done with a single
recursive add on the root directory.
6. You can copy the contents of you trunk directory to the location
were you want to have your working copy. This way, you don't have to
re-checkout.
Kind regards
