startxwin.bat problem

[Haisam K. Ido]

I just installed cygwin and xfree according to the provided instructions;
however, when I execute startxwin.bat i get the following error:

"The XWIN.EXE file is linked to missing export CYGWIN1.DLL:_ctype_."

in a separate dialog box, while the dos window says:

Out of environment space
Out of environment space
A device attached to the system is not functioning.
Invalid switch - /B
Invalid switch - /B
Invalid switch - /B

Can someone be kind enough to help?
