I left that out since retry got me further up the road each time.

I set all cygwin services to manual, rebooted and got a strc?? error, 
can't find my notes now.  

Anyway, 1.7 is installed now.  On the next box, I'm shutting down 
services, setting them to manual startup, rebooting and then 
installing.

Thank you,

Wes
