No, sorry - FreeSurfer is Linux and Mac only. We have looked at Windows 
porting (using 'cygwin') but for now there is no Windows version.

The best solution would be for you to take a "spare" Windows box and either 
reformat and install Linux, or re-partition and install Linux (creating a 
dual-boot machine).

You could, in a pinch, if you have a Windows box with enough free space, 
install VMware player (it's free, search on google) and search for a CentOS 
Linux image. This will allow you to run Linux from within Windows. It's not 
recommended as the hardware requirements on the host (Windows machine) are 
quite high, but it is doable.

FreeSurfer isn't "run" from a GUI. You will need to use a terminal (but it's 
quite straightforward -- see the FreeSurfer wiki). You should be able to run 
it on your mac at home, provided:

* it has an intel CPU running Mac OS X 10.4 (tiger) or 10.5 (leopard)
* has at the very least 1GB of RAM, although I'd not recommend this. 2GB is 
really the minimum to be comfortable.

Hope this helps...

Cheers
