win32 error 998: ERROR_NOACCESS


I am having problems with post installation processes of Cygwin on my PC. The system is running Windows XP Home Edition. I have attempted to install cygwin 5 times on this machine, the uninstallation was followed as recommended through cygwin.

Included are some command inputs with the outputs that occur; also the setup.log is included.

The following is copied as displayed by the shell.
***********************************************************************

bash-3.2$
**************************************************************************

The Win32 error 998 refers to:

    ERROR_NOACCESS 998 Invalid access to memory location. 

This was obtained from a microsoft address.

The packages I am attemting to install include:

astyle 
binutils 
gcc-g++ 
gdb 
make 
splint 

nano 
VIM 
 
less 
util-linux 

I appreciate any feedback as to possible reasons and/or fixes to the memory access error. Also, is it normal for the prompt to appear as "bash-3.2$"; on other systems that run cygwin I have seen the user's name or the current logged user.

Thanks for helping
