Drush on Windows is experimental, since Drush's test suite is not running there (help wanted).
-
Acquia Dev Desktop is excellent, and includes Drush. See the terminal icon after setting up a web site.

Or consider running Linux/OSX via Virtualbox. Drupal VM and Vlad are popular.* These Windows packages include Drush and its dependencies (including MSys). * 7.0.0 (stable). * 6.6.0. * 6.0.

Or install LAMP on your own, and run Drush via Git's shell, in order to insure that all depedencies are available.
