Cygwin X Window issues and questions are handled on the cygwin-xfree mailing
list, not this list.  When you repeat your query there, kindly be more specific
about "the start up window" i.e. what exactly you mean by that.  Are you
starting the X server manually somehow (how?) or are you using one of the
shortcuts/icons setup.exe has installed to make it easy?

x2x is not something you need for simple usage of X, so don't worry about making
that work.
HTH,
