You *did* uninstall LyX 1.3.6 before trying to install the new version?
Yes.
Anyway, you can always fix the breakage by hand by typing
cd "C:/Program Files/LyX/Resources/lyx"
sh.exe configure
In an MSYS terminal. Probably also in a cmd.exe terminal too.
Running "sh.exe configure" fixed it from a MSYS terminal. It did
produce some baggage in Path prefix:
C:\msys\1.0\bin;C:\msys\1.0\bin;C:\Python24;C:\msys\1.0\bin;
C:\Python24;C:\texmf\miktex\bin;C:\msys\1.\bin;C:\Python24;
C:\texmf\miktex\bin;C:\Perl\bin;C:\msys\1.\bin;C:\Python24;
C:\texmf\miktex\bin;C:\Perl\bin;C:\gs8.51\gs8.51\bin;C:\msys\1.0\bin;
C:\Python24;C:\texmf\miktex\bin;C:\Perl\bin;C:\gs8.51\gs8.51\bin;
C:\ImageMagick
which I edited/reduced to C:\msys\1.0\bin;C:\Python24;
C:\texmf\miktex\bin;C:\Perl\bin;C:\gs8.51\gs8.51\bin;C:\ImageMagick
