definitely.
The problem here is that Cygwin is just a DLL and some applications. That is, it runs as a normal user process and does not involve any
device drivers.
Of course, from a naive user's point of view, *everything* obtained via "Cygwin's setup.exe" would seem to be part of "Cygwin"..
Anyway, another stab in the dark is that the X server is stressing something in your graphics adapter's drivers that is causing it to BSOD. (This sort of stuff happens regularly when Java tries too hard to accelerate graphics and tickles graphics bugs).
Get the latest version of your display driver adapters from the manufacturer's web site and see if that improves things.
