You issue is that you are loading the default nginx config also. In case of multiple server blocks, the one that came first answers the request. In your case it is default nginx config block which is answer. So simple fix you can try is add default_server.

server {
    listen       80 default_server;
    server_name  localhost;

    #charset koi8-r;

    #access_log  logs/host.access.log  main;

    location / {
        root   C:/chat1/;
        index  index.html index.htm;
    }

If that doesn't help then you need delete the config of default server. You can see what config your nginx is actually loading by running nginx -T
