Any other suggestions of what I could try?  Am I doing the right thing in
trying to get the console output in the command prompt?
Sorry - I wasn't looking high enough up in the debug output.  If I just
select 'Graphics conversion and loading' messages I see this:

..\..\src\Format.cpp (147):     will guess format from file extension: vsd ->

..\..\..\src\graphics\GraphicsConverter.cpp (264): build_script ...
..\..\..\src\graphics\GraphicsConverter.cpp (330):      No converter defined! I

So I need to specify another converter.  I thought that LyX would take the
to-pdf converter I've specified, and then convert the PDF to something it
could preview; is this not the case?

There may not be any pdf->png converter defined, though one could use ImageMagick to define one. A better solution might be to modify the script you have to export something other than PDF. This is probably fairly easy to do.
