bash IS a regular unix shell.  And if you really want to see C:Cygwin> as
your prompt, simply set PS1 to that value.

I need more context as to what you have tried, what error messages (if
any) you are getting, and what you expected.

> 
> Please help!

For starters, asking an individual instead of the list is not the best
approach.  I recommend following the steps at
http://cygwin.com/problems.html, and including the output of 'cygcheck
- -svr' as a text attachment as part of your problem report.
