Same as Christian Brabandt's: works, but put the syntax highlight off

This works only for DOS batch files, other files are also opened in
cp850.

But in the Cygwin vim don't recognizes the s:windows_enc variable, I
will substitute this for 'cp850'

This works for me:

exec 'autocmd BufReadPre *.bat set fileencodings=ucs-bom,cp850,latin1'

Thank you all.
