According to Paminu on 1/17/2006 5:21 AM:

We need more details.  Did you mean emacs or xemacs (they are different,
after all)?  Are you running the cygwin version of emacs?  If so, you are
better off using POSIX paths (/home/mos) and not Windows paths, especially
since \ can be treated as an escape character.  If not (ie. you are
running some native Windows compilation of emacs), then consider using the
cygwin version, or else ask the distributor of the windows version for help.

Hint - following the directions in this link will help you greatly
(including the part about attaching the output of cygcheck -svr):
