Hi,
I got the same problem, I ran Insight debugger too but it failed. Code very
well in new version of Cygwin but
Exe file does not give any output. Insight debugger says unknown error.
I was wondering whether XP Media Edition is conflicting with Cygwin
environment.
I tried the Cygwin1.dll to run in DOS mode but it failed.
I will also try the same thing as Jonathan says.
Thanks,
Champ
