I had that annoyance to, but I used a shell login script to erase the
offense windows box.
Something like this. I used zsh, but you should be able to translate
it to bash easily.
It's not elegant, but it gets rid of the windows box.
I forgot which one, but I think the "cnime.exe" or "cmd.exe" is the
windows box that you find annoying.
---- script called from login script.... start
#! /bin/zsh
# A is declared as a null array below:
A=()
# Below I search for offending processes that i don't like..
ps -W | grep "\(conime.exe\|ctfmon.exe\|cmd.exe\)" >~/tmp-z
# Set array 'A' to offensive processe's #'S or Name's (I forgot)
#...below the process names are extracted .. This is (blush) hard
coded offsets...
A=(`cut -d" " -f6-9 ~/tmp-z`)
rm ~/tmp-z
if [[ $#A == 0 ]] ; then return 1
else
# below loop to kill all offensive processes found...
for PID in $A[*]
do
kill -f $PID
done
fi
------------ end

I use a cygwin compiled and build version of emacs, the most recent
test version, but it sounds to me like you did not use setup and
download the existing emacs binary from cygwin. "runemacs.exe" is NOT
cygwin compatible, ..... or how to say it... IT is build native to
windows. You need a native cygwin ( operating system compatiable ..
like POSIX supplied by cygwin to get emacs to understand x-windows and
terminals.
Try downloading the emacs binaries that cygwin has and try it.
Ah.. and run "startx &" to get into an X-windown terminal and then
run emacs....
to get the X-window graphic emacs (from cygwin or built by yourself) running.
