This is a known LyX bug that may sometimes occur. Workaround:
---
LyX might not start after the installation when the internet connection
was closed
while the installation (see LyX's bug #2829)
Workaround: delete the files "textclass.lst" and "packages.lst" in the
folder
~:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\LyX1.4.x
and restart LyX

If this doesn't help try to install LyX using this installer:

Uwe,
I don't think there will be files in
~:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\LyX1.4.x (in fact, I
don't think that directory will exist). From the error messages in the
original post, I think that if anything they will be under C:\Windows.
Unless the version of LyX in your installer works with UNC paths (I'm
guessing it does not), switching installers probably will not help either.
