I use the second way of 2 above - regular NTEmacs ran from cygwin
environment.
I suggest to write simple windows script starting always emacs under
cygwin:
cat > startemacs.bat
set HOME="c:/cygwin/home/david"
set PATH="c:/cygwin/bin;c:/cygwin/usr/bin;"%HOME%
cd %HOME%
c:/path/to/emacs/emacs.exe
Or something like above.
It has many advantages over emacs in 'pure' windows environment. It
then can use all cygwin tools like bash, sed, grep, diff and others.
Look in my article mentioned in earlier post, it should contain more
detailed info about this.
