Invisible X client window borders


I'm not sure if this is an Xserver problem or a a window manager on. In TWM 
and in Afterstep I don't get the rectangle or grid when moving or resizing 
client windows. The proper window decoration does show up on the x clients.
 
I have an Nvidia GeForce II MX and Windows XP. (On an Athlon Thunderbird).
 
I installed the latest Cygwin and Xfree a few days ago. I'm running AfterStep 
v. 1.8.11 compiled and running under Cygwin/XFree.

I did the same at work a week ago on a different machine, and resizing, 
placing, and moving windows is fine. (I don't have window contents shown on 
resize or move, and I use manual window placement if there is no room to 
display the window). At work on Cygwin/XFree the grid/rectangle shows up 
correctly in Afterstep, as it does on a native Linux XFree86 server.

Apart from that, XFree and Afterstep seem to be running fine on Cygwin. I 
can't get aterm to work, (it compiles and run and can get as far as 
displaying the shell prompt, but then it locks up) so I'm using the cygwin 
provided rxvt instead and it runs fine under X.
