LyX doesn't know anything about LaTeX .cls files. You need to make the
beamer.layout file available to LyX by copying it to

${USER_LYX_DIR}/layouts/beamer.layout

and reconfiguring LyX.

USER_LYX_DIR is presumably C:\Documents and Settings\Samar\Application
Data\lyx or something similar.

On my linux machine (runs teTeX), this file is to be found at
/usr/local/share/texmf/tex/latex/beamer/lyx/layouts/beamer.layout

It'll be somewhere equivalent under MiKTeX. If not, you can grab it from
the latex-beamer.sf.net viewcvs tree:

Out of curiosity really, but if lyx knows where miktex or equivalent is why doesn't it find these layout ifles automatically - or is this particular to beamer.
