Failed to create /tmp/.X0.lock file?

After power up, I log in on a Vista 32 machine on a non-admin account,
and start XWin server via power shell by calling the startxwin.exe
executable. Sometimes XWin fails to start and I get a pop up that says
(paraphrase) "Failed to create /tmp/.X0.lock file" I tried using the
-nolock option to no avail. How can I alleviate this? Thanks!
