Okay, I have downloaded the two zips I needed, and done everything except the cygwin thing. But there's one problem, I can't locate the cygwin.dll file; it's not where the faq says it was. Besides that, I haven't done anything, just extracted the files into the directories and such.

Which two zips? Can you give their names?

One of them doesn't need Cygwin, it is a Windows executable.

If you have one that needs Cygwin, and you haven't installed Cygwin, then you need to. See this page:
