2.510.2.2 is the version of 'setup.exe', not Cygwin. The Cygwin package,
which is just one of many in the Cygwin distribution, is currently 1.5.24-2.
OK sorry, the Cygwin version is 1.5.24-2

Let's start here: <
http://cygwin.com/problems.html>
The only thing listed on that page that I didn't do was to include the output from cygcheck, since cygcheck also gives the fork permission denied error:
bash-3.2$ cygcheck -s -v -r > cygcheck.out

bash: fork: Permission denied
