install Magic VLSI design tool in my Laptop which has Windows Vista
Home Basic as its Operating System.So I installed Cygwin by following
the instructions as given in the following site

But I couldn't get X11 server installed though I followed the steps
perfectly. Please give me a solution regarding this.
Thanking you,in anticipation.

You haven't given us anywhere near enough information to let us work
out what your problem is.
What follows is a general procedure to follow to get X working.
If you installed cygwin with DOS line endings, you would be better off
cutting your losses and uninstall cygwin. Then start again using UNIX
line endings. DOS line endings just cause more trouble than they are
worth, and there is no good reason to use them. (The option is being
removed from setup for cygwin 1.7)
Next, read these links (even if X is now working):
Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/
FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
Implicit in this is a pointer to the instructions for installing
Cygwin/X as recommended by the Cygwin community. If you need help
from the Cygwin community, it's best to use the resources that are
maintained by the community. We can't vouch for or support other
sources.
