I was worried about that, and in despair logged on as administrator and
tried again, but got the same behavior--
clicking on the Lyx icon I see a brief DOS (cmd) window which
disappears, then another DOS window appears briefly, disappears, and
then silence-- Lyx never appears.

By the way, I agree that changing the paper size to letter rather than A4
and allowing needed packages to be installed without asking is not the cause
for this failure, since I did it that way on the one machine where the
alinstaller did work for 1.6.5 (A Windows 2000 system). The failures were
on two XP sp3 machines.
Does the alt-installer require administrative permission for something
during installation what is not available to standard user under SP3?
