Well windows is a whole different architecture. So binaries for linux will never run in windows. You will either have to compile the same file on windows to create a windows executable. Or you will have to find a crosscompiler which creates windows binaries.

Sifvion,
when you port an application from one OS to other OS, you can't binaries. all you can do is source code porting maening that take source code and recomplile on the new OS using compiler on the new OS. or otherwise find a cross compiler on linux that produce binaries for windows architecture, still i suspect linking loading problems. best advice is to port source code. many c complilers are available on windows. so there won't be problem if you opt for souce code porting.
