Please post your system configuration files (AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS) here.

That might or might not be relevant, but it's hardly a good idea. Why don't you use the DJGPP port of Bash instead of Cygwin's? For one thing, you can't invoke commands longer than 126 characters when you run DJGPP programs from the Cygwin Bash. And there might be other incompatibilities. Why risk them?
