OK. 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.
Thanks,
Mike
