Problem solved!

I do have null.sys on my system but it was not listed in the Windows
device manager. It somehow got uninstalled. I looked for a while for
some manual way to re-install it to no avail, so I re-installed Windows
XP. Now cygwin works fine, but just about everything else is broken...
I'll re-install XP's SP1 and hopefully things should return to normal.

Thanks for the assistance.

Sandy
