Still try +x or 755 and then see if you can use Xwin.  Start Xwin with no
command options first, from \usr\X11R6\bin directory under a bbash shell

./xwin :0 &

Let's see what happen.  You should get the gray X-server screen if it works.
If works, then kill it using alt+F4 key and start from bash or startxwin as
you like.

I run XWin dirrectly since if you run startxwin.bat,  it will pop a
window and
exit right away and you can not catch the error message.
Since there are some client programs in startxwind.bat, it will
interfere
with Xwin error message.

My xf_dx.dll has execute permission.
