Shouldn't make any difference (Windows regards directory names lyx and
LyX as the same thing unless two separate directories lyx and LyX
exist.

Nonetheless, it's probably a good thing to rename
   C:\Documents and Settings\William\Application Data\lyx
as LyX. You'll probably have to do it in two steps, lyx -> lyx2 and
lyx2 ->LyX

If, from the command line, you run
    $ lyx.exe -dbg init
You'll see where LyX is looking for stuff.
