Probably you can't incorporate it in any conventional MD study. See the 
supported feature list here http://wiki.gromacs.org/index.php/OpenMM_GROMACS

GROMACS 4.x can run under cygwin. Maybe you can get the OpenMM version 
of GROMACS to run natively or under Cygwin, but you should seek your 
help from the people who released that version.
