Ditto. I tried the fix suggested by Torsten Andersen (12 dec) of using
-userdir (path) and for the path made sure no spaces were in it... no
help, the installation rebuilt the user space and again failed with

I re-installed three times so far.

Do you have MikTeX installed (and on your system command path)? Is your
home drive C:, and is your home path \Documents and Settings\your_id, or
alternatively is your home on a remote server? (If you're not sure,
open a DOS shell and run 'set h' to see the relevant environment variables.)
Also, have you tried running the configuration script manually? To do
so, open a DOS shell, maneuver to the directory in which you want LyX to
create the user space, and run '<path to python>\python.exe <path to
LyX>\Resources\configure.py'. It might help to capture the output, to
see what all LyX is (or is not) finding.
