I just tried installing the 1.6.8 update using the standard installer bundle
"LyX-1.6.8-1-Installer-Bundle" on Windows 7 (64 bit).  Although it appeared
to install without any problems, upon trying to start Lyx I get the
following popup message:

"Lyx: no system directory
 Unable to determine the system directory having searched
   C:/Program Files (x86)/LyX16/bin/../Resources/
Use the '-sysdir' command line parameter or set the environment variable
LYX_DIR_16x to the Lyx system directory containing the file
'chkconfig.Itx'."


The problem appears to be the  'chkconfig.Itx' file.  I don't see it
anywhere within the Lyx installation directory tree.
