That is probably the source of all these problems.
Reconfiguration is done by running a python script, and it can be done
from outside LyX. I'm guessing that the configure.py script must be in
C:\Program Files (x86)\LyX16\Resources\. If so, you can do something
like this from a terminal:
python.exe C:\Program Files (x86)\LyX16\Resources\configure.py
Make sure you do it from inside your LyX user directory, wherever that
is (in case it works). If it fails, hopefully you'll get some
information about why.

Yes there is a file called theorems-ams.module in:
C:\Program Files (x86)\LyX16\Resources\layouts
But as I wrote its not possible to reconfigure. A friend of mine has
the exact same problem in winXP SP3 so it must be a bug.

That is checked by default.
