Hello,
I am running Lyx 1.4.3-5 on Windows XP. I am unable to render .eps files in
my documents. The preview shows up correctly, but the graphics do not appear
in the dvi or pdf docs. Please let me know what I can do. The following is
the error message that I receive:

Dude! UCSD has one of the best known Computer Science programs in the
US. Can't you get them to fix it?
Ok, just kidding. First thing I would try is the following. Open the
document in LyX and do View->DVI. While you're staring at the
image-free output (or the associated error message), use Windows
Explorer to locate your LyX temp directory. Unless you modified the
path (in Tools -> Preferences... -> Paths -> Temporary directory),
you'll find it in C:\Documents and Settings\Stephen\Local Settings\Temp.
Now see if there is a file named
0C__Documents_and_Settings_Stephen_Desktop_graph1.eps sitting there. If
yes, try to open it with Ghostview (or whatever you use to view EPS
files). This is by way of checking that the file itself (a) has been
copied to the temp directory from your desktop (suitably renamed) and
(b) is intact.
