Tried rebaseall, reinstallation of emacs and xorg with no success.

You're not using the emacs from the Cygwin distribution (which is /usr/bin/emacs). Where did /usr/local/bin/emacs come from?

- It is just a script to scale the geometry to my display.

emacs . -geometry 100x73+504-55&

Doesn't this script call itself recursively? Try


/usr/bin/emacs . -geometry 100x73+504-55&
