cygwin, windows and octave

[SITI HAJAR A BAKAR]

hello all,
I am trying to install octave 2.1.67 on windows through cygwin. I am 
trying to access my downloaded 2.1.67 via cygwin by typing the following
cd/cygdrive/c/octave
and
cd/cygdrive/C/octave   just in case

Cgywin insists that the directory does not exist.
However, when I call octave in cygwin, it pops up despite having 
uninstalled my prevos version, 2.1.50.

BUT none of my previous m files for octave are recognized, and they 
cant be opened.
Can someone explain this to me?? Thank you very much.
