Thanks for the help Uwe, but I still am having problems.

About your suggestion - personally I think MiKTeX was installing
packages fine (it never complained and seemed to complete the process
whenever I clicked install package in the package manager). BUT it
never showed floatflt.sty in the MiKTeX package manager.  Its NOT in
the package list.  In my very uneducated opinion it seems like MiKTeX
has decided to remove floatflt.sty from there package list because its
so old.

Yes this is the problem. I informed the author of MiKTeX now and hopes that 
he'll undo this.
The floatflt-package is needed by LyX for wrap floats. For the next big LyX release, LyX 1.6.0, I rewrote the wrap float feature that instead of flatflt, the package wrapfig is used.
(For more infos about the new features, have a look at
 http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/NewInLyX16 )

For now, I attached the flatflt.sty. To install it

1. Copy it to the folder
   ~\MiKTeX 2.7\tex\latex
2. open the MiKTeX settings program and click there on the button "Refresh FNDB"

regards Uwe
