Thanks to Angus and Paul, the preview is now functional for me. It's a
complex error prone process, I hope that it will all be built into the
next release.

You indicated elsewhere you're using MiKTeX on Win XP, correct? In
that case, send the tar file to the bit recycler, then use MiKTeX's
package manager to install the preview package.
Also, did you get rid of the python executable that came with LyX and
install the full-blown version?
There are notes for coaxing preview to work on the Wiki:
http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/InstantPreview
and
http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/WindowsSetup (look for Instant Preview about
60% of the way down the page)
