Unless you want to use relyx then you don't need perl.
I suggest you go and get tex2lyx (info on the wiki) and forget about perl all together

Hello all! Congrats for successfully completing the Windows port of LyX! I just installed it. Great :) (if I don't change the default path) However I could not install pearl. No matter which version I try to install, I only get a "wrong os" error message. I am using Win XP.
