Hello, I am running Lyx 1.4.1 on Windows XP. I am unable to view the
DraftDVI as suggested in the Tutorial. When I select View | DraftDVI I get
"No information for viewing Draft DVI". Selecting View | PDF (either option)
produces similar messages.
If I try File | Export | DraftDVI I
get an error popup from the 16bit MS-DOS Subsystem (!) that says "The NTVDM
CPU has encountered an illegal instruction". I don't know if this is
reltated to the problem or not but I couldn't see anywhere to configure the
location of the dvi previwer.
I could be wrong but the last time I had a message like that {... CPU ...
illegal instruction}, it was because the program I was trying to run was
compiled for i686 and the processor on my machine was an i586.
It might help to know:
A) What processor your machine has. (I don't remember how to find that on
windows.)
B) What processor the DVI viewer was built for. (you'll probably need to ask
the folks who built it, AFAIK that would be the MiKTeX crew assuming you used
Uwe's installer.)
if the DVI viewer was built for an older processor than the one you have, then
the problem I NOT what I thought it was.
I hope this is helpful.
