CVS is a client/server system - so you need:
* a graphical interface, eg: TortoiseCVS
* a client, eg: CVSNT 2.x or CVS 1.x or EVSCM 3.x
* a server, eg: CVSNT 2.x or CVS 1.x or EVSCM 3.x

They can all run on one PC if you like.

TortoiseCVS and WinCVS are both popular graphical interfaces and are
both designed to work with CVSNT clients and both CVS and CVSNT servers
(TortoiseCVS includes the CVSNT client).  

CVSNT runs on windows/linux/unix wheras I think CVS is ix-only (or
available under 'unix like' windows runtimes like cygwin).

The company I work for fund CVSNT development by selling CVS Suite which
combines several integrations and graphical clients with documentation
and support, which may be helpful for you to know should your home
project morph into a bigger one for work.  

Please remember that 'free software' is not about price but about the
freedoms the license grants you.
