Yes, moving the file test.lyx to C:\ solves the problem. The path to
test.lyx is fairly long. It's located five directories deep.
The path consists of 68 characters, including C: and "\", plus the file
name. I have changed figure name to be only one character long, but that
did not help.
This is what I get when I run "set" from command line:

Does not look like a lot of variables?
Thank you

Ok, this makes me return to my theory that you are somehow running out of
environment space. That would be consistent with the batch file symptoms,
although why it would affect just the one Postscript image is a mystery,
as is why freeing space by eliminating some of the other environment
variables did not fix things. Is the path to test.ps fairly long? If so,
do you cure the problem by copying test.ps to a directory with a shorter
path (say C:\temp) and pointing test.lyx at the copy?
I tried the -debug All option in ImageMagick. Amazingly enough, it gives
no information I can see about calls to Ghostscript, let alone what
arguments are being passed.
