Thank Bob. I installed the software as Admin and rebooted the
computer and logged back in as Admin to run the software. During the
installation process, I accepted all the defaults and this software is
still not working.
I am not sure what kind of magics needed to get it to work for others
and not me.
It should work on XP as I installed it now on many PCs. Your problems seem to be problems with the
LaTeX-installation, so try out the following:
1. Uninstall MiKTeX completely
2. Check if you have installed Python, if yes, uninstall it when you don't need it, if you need it,
actualize it to Python 2.5.x
3. uninstall all installed LyX-versions completely
4. reinstall LyX 1.5.1 using this installer:
http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/LyXWinInstaller
If possible, open an Internet connection before you install.
5. if LyX is still not working, reinstall LyX using the same installer, because the uninstaller
cleans up the registry a bit when old MiKTeX-installations left broken registry settings
Please report me if it still doesn't work.
regards Uwe
