The second one, my laptop, didn't have latex so I installed miktex 2.8 (complete version) first. Then I have installed Lyx 1..6.5 but I had a problem: all the layouts are not recognized so I can't view neither print documents ("document class not available" says Lyx when loading the file)

It is important that you have an open Internet connection when installing LyX. This assures that all LaTeX text classes are installed.

The easiest way to fix your problem would be to

- uninstall LyX _completely_
- uninstall MiKTeX _completely_
- uninstall Aspell and its dictionaries (if this program was installed)
- open an Internet connection
- reinstall LyX using the complete version of this installer:
http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/LyXWinInstaller
- (drink a coffee or make a break because the installation process will take several minutes)

This will automatically installs MiKTeX and all other third-party programs needed by LyX (spell checker, image converter, etc.)
