Hi,
I have researched as much as I can on this.
1. I am not running Zone Alarm 5 and I have Windows firewall turned off.
2. cygcheck.out attached.
3. I downloaded the current winGrass installation CD. Installation appeared to
proceed without problems. My system is relatively clean, having been clean
installed from scratch a couple of months ago.
4. I can start a bash shell and run commands with no problems.
5. Trying to start Xwindows through various means (grass61.bat, startx, running
Xwin) all result in the X icon appearing in the system tray, but it never gets
a context menu and no windows appear. Trying to run an X application cannot
find an Xserver to connext. I can only stop the Xserver by killing it from the
Windows Task Manager.
Because you're running in MultiWindow mode so no background screen (root
window) will appear only the Taskbar Icon. A right click on this should
give you a menue to show the root window.
When starting a x-prog from bash did you set the DISPLAY environment
variable prior to this like:
export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0
xclock
If not the x prog not knows to connect to which display.

6. Using the command line
XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error
produces the following output:
