The present paper is devoted to small radius accretion disk formation in microquasar CYG X-1. The results show that in the case of the strong wind action on a disk the disk radius is about of 20 ÷ 30 per sent of accretor’s Roche lobe radius (it is about of 0.08 of orbital separation) instead of the standard disk radius equal to 80 ÷ 85 per sent of accretor’s Roche lobe radius (the last magnitude is a disk radius equal to 0.22 of orbital separation). In the present paper we try to resolve the problem that is arising in the case of microquasars when we investigate the accretion disk formation in these objects. Indeed, since the microquasars are the massive close binary systems (MCBS) in which the donor is massive stars of O-B class the strong wind is blowing from these stars. In this case the problem is arising: what is the situation in which an accretion disk in microqausars is formed. By the other words, it means what are the processes and the matter that are responsible for an accretion disk formation in microquasars: is this matter from one-point stream only or a disk is formed from the donor’s wind in essential or one is formed from both processes simul- taneously. This question is not idle since one is strong affects on ON-OFF state generations in the precession mechanism model. Since this mechanism is strong depending from the magnitude of the disk centre density and all the parameters affecting on it are very important for calculations. The matter configuration in the vicinity of one-point is one of these parameters that strong affects on ON-OFF state production and disk structure and the central disk density. By this reason we have investigated in the present paper how the disk structure is depending from the wind  configuration in the vicinity of one-point.
