I am sorry but I cannot be helpful with this question because I never use the windows builds of GrADS, and so I must rely of the members of this forum to provide technical support for that particular platform. It seems like you should be able to have two versions installed and be able to invoke them independently … did you try and fail?

The instructions on this website were easy enough until it got to the actual installation of GRADS, step #2 under "Installation" in particular. I've made the directory in the Cygwin, but I'm not able to get to it through there.
