screen size ...

Use startxwin.bat instead... it uses "multi-window mode" instead of an 
external window manager.  Each X11 app gets its own Win32 window in 
multi-window mode.  You can run it with -multiwindow, but you have to be 
sure not to run another window manager at the same time (e.g. twm, mwm, 
openbox, etc.).  startxwin.bat already has this setup for you.  It is in 
/usr/X11R6/bin/startxwin.bat
