Check for the following errors that could happen during installation:

1. Make sure you installed COMPLETE cygwin: you need change the settings during cygwin installation, the default settings are missing some utilities that MATLAB needs.

2. When you download the h8300-hms-gcc-3.0.3-1.patch file, if you are using Internet Explorer, make sure you right-click the hyperlink and choose "save as" to get the file. If you use the default "save as" from the file menu, you'll get a corrupted file for some unknown reason.
