Have you looked at using cron? That would be the unixy way of doing 
things. But you can invoke bash and give it a script and some parameters 
in your "sh.bat" file-

at 12:15 cmd /c "c:\bla\bla\sh.bat"

contents of sh.bat-

bash -i /cygdrive/c/bla/bla/MyScript parameter1 parameter2

(the -i makes the shell interactive, forcing ~/.bashrc to be run- check 
out 'bash -c "help set"')

HTH,
Peter
