After downloading and installing cygwin the user guides directs you on how
to start cygwin.

One method is to run /usr/X11R6/bin/startxwin.bat by double-clicking it in
Windows Explorer.
"startxwin.bat". However, I get the followining 2 error messages:
               1)"required .DLL file, CYGCYGIPC-2.DLL, was not found.
                2)"required .DLL file, CYGWIN1.DLL, was not found.

startxwin.bat will work if you add the right directories to the Windows path. Assuming the default install location, that would be c:\cygwin\bin;c:\cygwin\usr\bin;c:\cygwin\usr\local\bin;c:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin.
