How did you install LyX (and MikTeX)? 

AFAIK the LyX installer for Windows tries hard to assist you to install the 
required packages.

How did you manage to get asked from MikTeX to install the amsthm.sty package 
and later it's missing? I'm not a MikTeX user, but either you are a LaTeX 
package manager like MikTeX or you have to add missing packages manually. You 
should avoid to mix these or you should know what you're doing.

You didn't say anything about your Windows version, or did I miss it?

Stephan
