Hello,
I have had some installation problems also and I finally reached the
conclusion that it was the firewall that caused the trouble. When MikTex
is installed, it needs an access to the internet. Usually the firewall
"asks" if you agree to give access to the internet to that program but
in this case it does not. So what worked for me was to uninstall
completely Lyx and MikTex, then disable the firewall and reinstall
everything back. I don't know if your problem is related to the one I
had, but maybe you want to try this.

Hello,
I just installed 1.4.4 for windows using the Standard web installer
found at ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/1.4.4/lyx-144-2.exe. The
installation seems to complete just fine, but when I double click on
the icon it crashes with a message "lyxc.exe has encountered a problem
and needs to close"
I also installed it in another computer using the network installation
package found at
ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/1.4.4/lyx-144-2-bundle.exe and it did
the same thing.
After I acknowledge the error screen another screen pops up with the
message.
"Lyx has been closed because of an unexpected situation. This is most
likely caused by a flow in the software. When you open your documents
again, you will be able to restore an emergency save and continue
working. Would you like to view detailed information about this
error?" After I click on the Yes button I get yet another screen that
says.
"Error Information
See chapter 3 of the Lyx Introduction (Help > Introduction) for
information about reporting this issue.
Debug log:
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an
unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.
Completed"
Because I don't have a way to run Lyx I can't get to the chapter 3 of
the Lyx introduction
Anybody knows how to get 1.4.4 running in windows?
Thanks
