Out for the count - install broke my cygwin

The two service processes started, but cron did not and I cannot get the
Z-shell to start correctly.
The commands in the cygwin.bat file are:
@echo off
c:
chdir c:\cygwin\bin
rxvt -e zsh --login -i
Sometimes it will flash on the screen and go away, other times the terminal
will stay on the screen, but no prompt and whatever characters are entered
are ignored.
I got a Z-shell by starting CMD and entering: zsh --login -i
When it started it bitched about a parse error near "\n" at the end of the
.zlogin file, but not .zshenv, .zshrc or .zalias. Is that a bug?
I got cron restarted by rerunning cron-config and doing a reinstall and
starting it as me (I'm the only user).
Now I need to know why the rxvt program is not working correctly.
