New machine, new Cygwin instillation, target triple mess

Hi,

I have just installed Cygwin on my new machine with a new harddrive, on 
Vista.

I had the old harddrive working with my old Cygwin instillation working on 
this machine, with Vista. Target triple was fine.

Questions :-

How do I get my old Cygwin Instillation to work for my E: drive, I could not 
see anything in the Windows Registry to change to deal with this. I changed 
the shortcut over to drive E, but Cygwin just bombs out.

How do I check a target triple from Cygwin, I found 'uname' but it was 
giving me i686, and so unknown values.

I really need to get my old Cygwin working, and to know about anything like 
installing Cygwin on a new 4 CPU AMD machine could effect the arget triple 
generation.

Many thanks in advance,

Aaron
