I can't remember: have we looked at your configuration log for 2.0.0?
I have posted it on the 22nd of June, a recent version is attached.

There are some "DEBUG: Failed to remove file" lines in the file.  As far as I 
can see, at least some of the files it tries to delete are in the program folder, to 
which the limited rights user does not have write access. Could that be source of 
problems?
I'm not sure. The bigger concern is the warning that your LaTeX installation is not LaTeX2e (which is nonsense). We can try an experiment to see if failed writes to the program directory might be the problem.

Log in as the limited rights user and open a command prompt in the LyX 2.0 user directory (C:\Documents and Settings\<limited user id>\Application Data\lyx20, if memory serves). From that prompt, run

C:\Program Files\lyx20\Python\python.exe C:\Program FIles\LyX2.0\Resources\configure.py

which should do the same thing that Tools > Reconfigure does, but with file writes occurring in the local user directory (where the limited user has full permissions). Does that fix any problems with 2.0? (If so, you can do the same trick with 1.6.)
