 I downloaded the latest LyxWinInstaller (complete) and attempted to

 At a couple points in the installation a DOS window popped up, did
 something that seemed to take only a short time, but then stayed there and
 wouldn't close. The installer was halted during this time. For each window
 I just waited a while and then closed it.

Don't do this! The first two DOS-Windows are opened by MiKTeX - the LaTeX-distribution that is installed with the complete installer. They should only stay for some seconds and then be closed automatically.

I think it's a relatively easy mistake to do...

How about adding some descriptions to this text? It wouldn't have to be a lot, in fact... maybe it could just refer to a web (wiki?) page where the details are explained?
