One person attempted years ago to get libMesh working on Visual
Studio, but the VS version he had was horribly flawed (this was around
2005 and it didn't support some features of the 1998 C++ standard) and
he just switched to Linux before ever completing a patch.

The newest Visual Studio might be fine, so long as you set up your own
build system and it includes or generates a libmesh_config.h that
disables any operating system features that Microsoft doesn't support.

What errors did XDR give you?
