It looks like my user directory is on the network. I went to Tools >

Create a directory on E: for your local settings (E:\lyxuser or whatever
you want to call it), then open a command prompt and run 'lyx -userdir
E:\lyxuser' (or whatever path you chose). It should recreate your user
directory. Check your TeX info and/or try to do whatever it was that
broke before (a Bibtex bibliography?).
If that turns out to be the problem, you can hack the Start menu icon
for LyX to include the -userdir switch.
