Sorry, what I meant was, has he/she simply tried installing Cygwin like you do with any other version of Windows? Last time I used Cygwin it had an installer so I didn't even have to build it

Solution 2

I'm running Windows 7 on my 64bit system. The problem is that i'm trying to setup cygwin on my system, in order to build up some projects. But it does work on my system and whenever i try to run it, it only stay still with the command line on the Window. Can any body tell me why i'm not able to run it on my system? Does any body have any idea about it? Kindly suggest me your views on the above issue.
Thanks

"it only stay still with the command line on the Window" - what do you mean by this? cygwin only has a command line interface...
