If all lyx 1.6.* version don't work for you, perhaps you can try the
portable version---Lytex(a experimental portable Lyx which is developed by
[email protected] not by the official), what you have to do is just extracting
them into your local disk and then run lyx, what 's more, u can edit the tex
source file in TeXworks(a simple syntax-highlight tex-editor) and convert
tex into pdf as well. Download link:
