The client should work on NT4. It's the server that has some problems.
And th einstlaler itself. But if you use the binaries-no-installer
distribution (it's on the ftp site), you should be able to use it.
Not sure about pgAdmin.

I think there may be on ein the actual Cygwin distribution, but I'm not
sure - it may also be an old verison.
