Thanks. I did suspect a converter, but the lists of converters under
/tools/preferences/file-handling/converters seem identical. In
addition, both Windows machines are running the same version of Lyx,
installed a couple of days apart. It is unclear why they should differ,
and why there would be no more specific error message from Lyx about the
failure.
By the way, which libraries were you referring to?

Ehud,
You are missing a converter on your second Microsoft machine.
Compare all
files and libraries on the two and you'll eventually find the difference.
