I assume you mean in addition --with-mpi=0, else I am expecting an error
message.
Configure did not bring up any errors:

Compilers:

  Clanguage: C
  Scalar type: real
  Precision: double
  Memory alignment: 16
  shared libraries: disabled
  dynamic libraries: disabled
xxx=========================================================================xxx
   Configure stage complete. Now build PETSc libraries with:
   make PETSC_DIR=/cygdrive/c/Users/Dominik/Programs/petsc-3.1-p3
PETSC_ARCH=win64-msvc-release all
xxx=========================================================================xxx

Building was also successful. Test run OK (with 1 MPI process)

My LIB:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\ATLMFC\LIB;C:\Program
Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\LIB;C:\Program Files\Microsoft
SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\lib;

Many thanks for any hints how to get a usable MPICH2 installation,
Dominik
