I was going to say that neither EAC or LAME could have messed me up, because they were both simple "unzip this into a directory" installs with no Windows installer, no registry hacks, etc. But now that I look closer, EAC has a cygwin1.dll in it!! (Why in blazes didn't the Explorer find it?? If I search only in Program Files it finds the EAC DLL, but if I search all of C: it only finds the one in \cygwin\bin !?!? Sure wish I could have done a good ol' reliable Unix / Cygwin "find" for it, but, uh, it didn't work...) Interestingly enough, a more careful search turned up TWO cygwin1.dll's. The other one is in a server process that runs all the time. Apparently it had the same version as my \cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll. So should I replace the 1.5.12 DLL in EAC with the 1.5.24-cr-0x5f1 version in c:\cygwin\bin that I just updated? > Also keep in mind that Windows, by default, likes to hide extensions > (in the explorer shell) and system files by default.

But you can do it! ;-) I dunno man, I think you've exceeded my technical abilities... :-) Thanks!
