I've had cygwin installed for a year on my Thinkpad T61, running
Windows XP professional, and just ran the latest setup.exe from
cygwin.com.
I now can't run X with startxwin.exe (no process appears, no icon in
the system tray, clients won't start)
No /var/log/Xwin.0.log is written, nor anywhere else I can see in /var/log

I think the original poster had a broken installation, there's no other reason for it to get fixed by a reinstall :-)
Maybe there was a reboot in there somewhere. On my XP32 on T61 (configuration determined by my employer) it was frequently necessary and sufficient to reboot before running startxwin. Now I have to take it back as it's failing to perform the first mount during Windows boot.
