setup.exe doesn't work for me.

[Bret Comstock Waldow]

Hello,

I have downloaded 'setup.exe' from both the Cygwin site and a mirror
site, and it doesn't work on my system.  The program runs, it asks about
the path, but appends an error message about not being able to load
user32.dll.  From then on, no matter whether I accept it's path, or
provide one, it then counts to 40 and tells me that it couldn't open the
ftp site, and exits.

What can I do?

Windows 95 OSR2 (user32.dll is present in the \windows\system
directory).
Toshiba Tecra 780CDM -- P II 266 CPU, 192 Mbytes RAM
dialup connection via ISP (works for everything else).  I can download
files, use ftp, etc.

regards,
Bret

This seems very strange indeed.  Could you cut-and-paste the output from
setup into a reply?  If you don't know how to do this from a command prompt
send me an e-mail.
