According to your cygcheck output, you're running an old version of the
software, the installation didn't finish properly, and you haven't installed
sshd as a service.  All of these will likely cause some problems for you.
I would recommend running 'setup.exe' and letting it upgrade your system.
Once done, run 'ssh-host-config'.  Then try starting the service.  Don't
forget to run 'ssh-user-config' if you plan to ssh to other machines from
your Windows box.
