OK, here it goes.

For cygrunsrv and for net start the same:
"Nie mozna znalezc opisu dla identyfikatora zdarzenia ( 0 ) w zródle (
xinetd ).
Byc moze komputer lokalny nie ma wymaganych informacji rejestru lub plików

potrzebnych do wyswietlania komunikatów z komputera zdalnego. Mozesz uzyc

: PID 3680 :
starting service `xinetd' failed: execv: 1, Operation not permitted."

I guess it's not really helpful, translating to english it says: "blah blah
blah, I have no
information to display the message".

Seems like I installed cygwin for "all users". I even reinstalled it now to
make
sure, but it doesn't help.

Here's mount result, if it can help:
C:\\cygwin\bin on /usr/bin type system (binmode)
C:\\cygwin\lib on /usr/lib type system (binmode)
C:\\cygwin on / type system (binmode)
c: on /cygdrive/c type user (binmode,noumount)
d: on /cygdrive/d type user (binmode,noumount)
e: on /cygdrive/e type user (binmode,noumount)
f: on /cygdrive/f type user (binmode,noumount)
