Jarva,
Cygwin/XFree86 is install completely with the Cygwin setup.exe
installer. There is no need to download the Cygwin/XFree86 binaries
seperately. In fact, the seperate binaries are old and probably broken
by now.
You need to start over and follow the instructions on the Cygwin/XFree86
home page (the User's Guide is a little out of date, but the home page
is up to date):
http://xfree86.cygwin.com/
Let us know if you are successful.
