corrected: use the startxwin.bat file in /usr/X11R6/bin, then start LyX
as above; OR use the scripts mentioned in item 10 of Claus' web page.

As a general note, it's probably worth your while to experiment a little
in general with cygwin (such as running an xterm and other simple X-programs)
before trying LyX, which requires a lot of things to be there to work
correctly.  That way, you will be in a better position to fix the other
things I have forgotten :-)
