I have recently loaded Lyx/Win 1.3.6pre on a WinXP Prof OS on my laptop.
The specific problem now appears to be the failure to deploy the beamer class
in lyx.
Miktex package manager shows that beamer.sty has been loaded.
In Miktex options, filename database has been refreshed.
In lyx, the Edit Reconfigure option has been exercised
When loading a lyx file which works fine on the linux version of lyx, the
error message is:
The document uses an unknown textclass "beamer" - substituting default.
When the file is loaded it shows the APA Style on the Document Class entry in
the Document Style tab. In the dropdown on the Document Class there is no
mention of Beamer.
Incidentally beamer.cls is very much there under texmf.
Anyone with any ideas?

You need to copy beamer.layout from
<MiKTeX root>\tex\latex\beamer\lyx\layouts
and paste it into either
C:\Documents and Settings\<your id>\Application Data\lyx\layouts
or
<LyX root>\Resources\lyx\layouts
(and maybe reconfigure LyX -- don't think so but not positive).
