I'm afraid that the main challenge in fixed alleged problems in Cygwin
is not giving you information, but in getting information (exact steps,
logs, etc.) to determine what when wrong. That is why the instructions
at http://cygwin.com/problems.html exist. If you are having so much
trouble installing, you might try one of the live-cd approaches which
are referenced at:

http://cygwin.com/faq/faq.setup.html#faq.setup.cd

(I have not used any myself, but others like them.)

Hope it helps.
