Mac prefers to store text files in UTF-8, while Windows tends to  
use  either 16 bit unicode or ISO with codepages. Another issue are  
line endings. So you often need to convert text files when moving  
from one system to another.


Open the files with a text editor (such as TextWrangler) that can  
translate them  to Windows.


I have tried opening in Emacs and Notepad, and saving) and I have  
commented out all the lines and retyped them fresh, but still get the  
same error.  The file compiles OK on Linux as well as the Mac, so yes  
it seems to be something specific to Windows.


My lines of code giving the problem are:

\KOMAoptions{%
,fromalign=right
,fromrule=aftername
,fromlogo=true
,backaddress=false
}

Is this LyX-generated code or your own Preamble stuff?

I have not tried, but should there not be a %-sign at the end of each 
line ??? Plus, there is a ',' too much on the first line.
So this is I believe not a cross-platform issue but wrong syntax (which 
happens to be forgiven or not depending on the platform and Koma version).


Try putting everything on one line, i.e.
\KOMAoptions{fromalign=right, fromrule=aftername ,fromlogo=true, 
backaddress=false} and I am almost sure everything works.

Thanks, but immediate problem is now that after re-installing Lyx, I  
discovered none of the document classes had been installed, so I've  
installed Koma - Script via MikeTex and reconfigure either freezes or
