Thank you for your report.

Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce these problems in the Windows port
of Emacs 21.1: setting scroll-margin to 5 produces the right effect,
both when scrolling up and when scrolling down.

Is it possible that the problem only happens if you load CUA mode, or
some other of your customizations?  Please try setting scroll-margin
in Emacs invoked as "emacs -q --no-site-file", and see if you can
reproduce the problem there.  Thanks.
