During kernel initialization, the kernel creates PID 0 ( sched). The sched process is sometimes called the "swapper."

cygwin does not play "fairly" - it does not have processes the way standalone unix does because it is a guest operating system. Under some circumstances it is possible do ps -ef on cygwin and only see your process tree - nothing else.
