I am using LyX 2.1.0 and MiKTeX 2.9. You might try to go to Tools->TeX Information and see what's there. It should give you the path to the LaTeX class files. Also, Help->LaTeX configuration should generate a document that tells what classes, fonts, etc. your LyX is aware of. If Richard is right (highly likely) and LyX is having trouble finding the LaTeX classes, then this should become evident when checking the configuration as suggested, and needs fixed. I would try to go to Help->About LyX and make sure you have MiKTeX (and Python, ghostscript, etc) in the path prefix. If this doesn't help you get there, maybe you can post yours. Mine says, $LyXDir\bin;$LyXDir\Python;$LyXDir\Python\Lib;$LyXDir\Perl\bin;$LyXDir\imagemagick;C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex\bin\x64;;C:\Program Files (x86)\Vim\vim74;C:\Program Files (x86)\LyX 2.1\ghostscript\bin;C:\Program Files\Inkscape-0.48 Jacob
