I did have the exact same problem described by Matthias, Windows XP, user is in administrators group. The setup.log showed no error, just that the file (cygwin1.dll) was scheduled for replacement. Sorry, don't have setup.log.full since after rebooting and checking that the file was not replaced I stopped the service that was blocking the replacement and reinstalled (didn't know that setup.exe overwrites that log). --=20 Ren=E9 Berber -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
