That is view the DraftDVI or DVI. When I try to view the DraftDVI i get an 
error message:

File does not exist: /filename.
For some reason, its looking in the temp directory, even though i saved the 
file to a different directory.


That's correct. LyX works within a temp directory to view documents.

I did File | Export | DraftDVI before that. 
It seemed to execute but i have no idea where it might have placed the 
generated dvi (it isn't in the directory where the latex is)


It's the default folder that is specified in the preferences as working 
directory.
Perhaps there is an unusual character in the path to the temp directory, so try it out by specifying 
another temp directory in the preferences.

If I try View | DVI then I get:
