I noticed that the python24.dlls were not the same size or date:
Directory of C:\lyx\LyX14\python
07/16/2006 07:41 PM <DIR> .
07/16/2006 07:41 PM <DIR> ..
07/16/2006 07:26 PM <DIR> DLLs
07/16/2006 07:27 PM <DIR> Lib
07/16/2006 07:26 PM <DIR> libs
03/29/2006 08:35 AM 4,608 python.exe
03/29/2006 08:35 AM 1,871,872 python24.dll
----------------------------
Directory of C:\windows\system32
03/30/2005 10:14 AM 1,867,776 python24.dll
-----------------------------------------------------
So I tried updating the Windows/system32 python24.dll.
No luck. I tried uninstalling Python altogether and
the Python under LyX didn't work. I tried reinstalling
Python2.4.3, the version Joost used and no luck. I
tried with the larger 62mb version and no luck. The
Python under LyX defeats Tex Information; it has to
be deleted before the system Python makes Tex Info work.
I'll leave this to those the older and wiser before beauty,
