It's web-based platform "CMS" ..so in order to install drupal you need to run a server at your PC to install and test it first or if you want to install it in the hosting directly it's easy . Preferred to install it on Linux server not windows for simplicity not more ..
You'll need a W(A)MP-ish environment:
- OS: Windows
- Server: Apache preferred (although IIS should do)
- DB: Mysql/SQlite or other accepted
- Code Engine: PHP
As noted above, you can get started with a prepackaged WAMP environment for testing purposes. However, for production you are much better off using L(Nix type of platform)AMP, for the reasons given above, including support availability.

yep it's compatible. it's just that most use linux, so when needing support, you might have trouble getting windows specific answers.
Apache
Hi, if you install on Windows recommend you use Apache, it works better.
