Starting X in Cygwin

Greetings,

I used to have an installation of Cygwin that, when I did a "startx", I =
got the server startup, the twm window manager, a couple of xterms and =
"oclock". Now, I run startx and all I get is the blank server screen. =
When I exit, I get a message to the effect of Xlib: not authorized to =
connect to display :0.0.

What am I doing wrong? I know a bit of Unix, but my knowledge of X falls =
short. I don't know how to authorize Xlib to  connect to display :0.0.

Any help will be appreciated with respect.

Thank you,
