In that case, to find the path, start with:
dir /x
This will provide the "short" names, which should be locatable:
03/05/2010 03:20 PM <DIR> DOCUME~1 Documents and Settings
06/14/2011 03:32 PM <DIR> PROGRA~1 Program Files
In this case, I'd use:
/cygdrive/c/DOCUME~1
And it should be able to locate the path.
