First, I checked textclass.lst: it's there and non-zero.
Second, I replace sed.
Third, I type configure at the c:\lyx32\share\lyx> DOS prompt and get: a lot of text and then "configure: error: cannot find chkconfig.ltx script"
This makes me think I have an error in my PATH statment. Here is my path:
PATH=C:\lyx32\share\lyx\..\..\bin;C:\lyx32\share\lyx\..\..\bin;c:\program files\imagemagick-6.1.7-q16;C:\texmf\miktex\bin;C:\WINNT\system32;C:\WINNT;C:\WINNT\System32\Wbem;C:\PROGRAM FILES\THINKPAD\UTILITIES;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Autodesk Shared\;C:\PROGRA~1\ULTRAE~1;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\BINN;C:\Program Files\IBM\Director\bin

First, check the file textclass.lst. I'm guessing it will exist but be zero bytes.
Next, go to the bin directory, open a DOS prompt and check which version of sed you have by typing sed --version. If it's 3.02, delete sed.exe and replace it with a newer version. (I think one is linked from the Wiki; if not, you can get it from Sourceforge, as part of the GnuWin project.)
Once you have a good sed in place, try running the configuration script (...\share\configure.bat) from a DOS prompt. See if a non-empty textclass.lst is produced. If so, I think you'll be able to start LyX.
