Why, really, do you want 7.3.4 and why on earth do you want cygwin? First, if you really want 7.3, you want 7.3.18. That said, you really don't want 7.3. You want 8.2. Or at least 8.1. 7.3 is ancient, and no longer fully maintained. Especially the windows parts. And finally, why do you really want cygwin? Since 8.0 we've had a native Windows port, which works a lot better than the cygwin one. It's a lot faster, it's a lot more stable, it's actually maintained etc. Bottom line - if you can, get 8.2.3 native windows version. //Magnus
