I've looked thru the archives and I've even tried installing as the "true" Administrator and all I get are errors either saying that sed.exe stopped working when I try to run setup on Vista, or I get install-info.exe stopped working if I try to reinstall after the sed fail. I even tried putting the snapshots copy of cygwin1.dll into the bin dir and that does nothing. I also sometimes see an error that says cygwin1.dll could not be found. I'm confused. In looking at the archives it appears as tho folks may have gotten cygwin to run on Vista but I sure can't. I have the RTM copy from MS since I was a beta tester. Please help.
