Actually, the search is relative to whatever key you have selected.
So, to search the whole registry you have to select the root.

At the moment, it looks like I'm going to have to scrub Windows and 
re-install it.

I suppose before that, I can try installing from our stable mirror.
Perhaps the Cygwin on the mirror site is badly buggy (despite all MD5
checksums being correct).

That didn't work, either.  Same alert panel titled "mount" that says: 
"The operation completed successfully."

This happens at the 99% Cygwin Setup stage, Downloading.  Progress bars look
to be about 80% for "Progress:", 99 or 100% for "Total:", and about 5%
for "Disk:".
