Running wine on separate X server

Greetings. I'd like to launch Skyrim under wine on a separate X. I use this command:
$ startx ~/bin/Skyrim -- :1
Code: 
$ cat ~/bin/Skyrim
#!/bin/sh
WINEPREFIX=/home/jr/.wineprfx/skyrim; export WINEPREFIX
cd "/media/games/Skyrim/"
wine TESV.exe
Working like a charm, but now I need to start Skyrim through skse_loader.exe. I tried to modify the script:
Code: 
$ cat ~/bin/Skyrim
#!/bin/sh
WINEPREFIX=/home/jr/.wineprfx/skyrim; export WINEPREFIX
cd "/media/games/Skyrim/"
wine skse_loader.exe

But the X server just hangs with the error:
Code: 
waiting for X server to shut down XIO:  fatal IO error 35 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server ":1"
      after 9 requests (7 known processed) with 0 events remaining.

I guess that it happens because skse_loader.exe doesn't run in fullscreen, it doesn't have a GUI at all. Does anybody have any suggestions?
 
Hi
I have got same message, running startx, how did you solve this problem? what do you mean "Looks like I have to run skse_loader over xterm;"

Sorry if it was unclear. I start the X like this:
$ startx xterm -- :1
Then xterm console appear and you can use it to load skse_loader.exe or anything else.
