Hello!

I'm having some trouble to get LyX working. Whenever I open a document I get
this error message:

"The layout file XXX requested by this document is not usable."

I have run Reconfigure several times ("successfully" as LyX proclaims), also
from the command prompt, reinstalled LyX and Miktex (also different versions)
And now I have tried to use TexLive. That didn't work either.
In my textclass.lst all the classes are marked as "false", so I guess LyX
doesn't recognize any Latex-class. (and I have a full TexLive installation which
was recognized during LyX installation)
I am also a bit confused by the missing point 1 about my LaTeX installation in
Help > LaTeX Configuration. There is no information about my LaTeX. The given
information starts with "1. Fonts". Strange, eh? 
It wouldn't bother me at all, but it makes me think LyX just never finds the
Latex distribution I happen to have.
And, finally, if I try to look at Tools > TeX-Information, I don't get any
response, even though the CPU seems quite busy. But it remains busy for over
half an hour without showing any information. (Then I aborted the process)

Does anyone know where the problem is? I am close to losing my head (the very
head I wanted to keep by using LyX instead of MS Word...)

BTW, my operating system: Windows XP, current LyX Version 1.6.4, TeXLive 2009.

Cheers, Sadjad
