I tried starting SOS from the MobiXterm terminal window.

It starts fine.

I then tried resizing the columns and moving the slider and everything works 
properly. No crashes.. So MObiXterm Xserver is OK at least.

Is there another program that uses the same x-server as X2go that I could try? 
Xming?

Yes, should work

I just see option to use custom xserver.
Do I choose that and then mobaxterm?

Oh, damn. The only thing I can imagine is a problem with the Windows X
server. In the menu of the x2goclient you can configure to use an
existing X server.  We can try that and switch to the mobaxterm X
server. Please download mobaxterm, start a ssh connection to your
server (ensure that X11 is enabled) and THEN start x2goclient on
windows as before, disable the X server in the menu and start your
session. Is that working?
