Is it possible that your cpu has some difference and the
probe compiled on my cpu is not effective or causing other
problems to your pc.

If you want to try, I prepared a slim version of the package at
http://matzeri.altervista.org/works/atlas/cgf/
disabling the build and leaving only the configure session

    cygport atlas-3.9.79-1.cygport compile

take 2 minutes on my pc on 20110611
