Program can not be run in DOS mode

Hello,
I just came across Cygwin a few days ago, so I decided to try it.
Eventually, I got it to download and install successfully. However,
it does not want to boot.
The error in the subject occurs every time I use the shortcut on
my desktop. By using the step-by-step boot in Win98, I found
that the error occurs after the following line:
Call c:\windows\command.com /e:4096 /c c:\cygwin\cygwin.bat
Cygwin.bat looks like:
@echo off
C:
chdir \cygwin\bin
bash --login -i
One more command is executed (c:\windows\win.com /wx)
and the machine reboots to Windows. Can someone with more experience
help?
Thanks, Bob Olbrich rjob@gulftel.com
