I can't reproduce your problem. I'm running Cygwin on two Vista 32
installations using Cygwin 1.5.22 or the latest developer snapshot from
http://cygwin.com/snapshots/, as well as on a Vista 64 machine with the
latest snapshot. You could try rebasing, maybe using a base address of
0x65000000, but changing the base address like this shouldn't be
actually required.
I have obviously no idea how you configured your system, which is sort
of a pain on Vista anyway. Sorry, but, this is one of the cases where
you have to roll up your sleeves and start debugging.

If you start using the cygw.bat file you should already have /bin, resp
/usr/bin (which is the same) in your path.
