Okay, that is at least a start.

When you say that you run startxwin.sh, does that mean that the previous 
instance of XWin.exe has exited?  Have you checked for XWin.exe in Task 
Manager?  You would need to be sure that all previous instances of 
XWin.exe have actually ended before you run startxwin.sh again.  Please 
tell me that you have never run startwin.sh multiple times in an attempt 
to get multiple desktops; I doubt you have, but just please tell me.

Thanks for debugging,

Harold
