Do you have the file scrbook.layout in LyX's layout directory

No.
That is very strange, this file MUST be there after you have installed LyX.
It cannot be that this file is deleted.
Ehm, You know that you must install LyX as administrator?
If yes, could you please log in as admin, and open an internet connection. Now start LyX by double
clicking on the lyx.exe, and reconfigure LyX. LyX will be opened with a console window where you can
see what LaTeX-packages are installed while the reconfiguration is run. What do you see there for
the document class "scrbook"? If there is a "no" behind the entry, you have either not set to
install missing packages on the fly in MiKTeX's settings (this is normally set by default by the
LyXWinInstaller), or you have a problem with your firewall; allow the latex.exe and pdflatex.exe to
connect to the internet.
Ok, I see lots of nos; how do I check MiKTeX's settings? Right now, I
have Lyx 1.5 and 1.5.1 and MiKTeX 2.6 and 2.7 -- maybe I forgot to
change MiKTeX's settings one of these times ...
You need to clean up your system!, (having two MikTeX installations causes often troubles and LyX
1.5.0 was replaced immediately by LyX 1.5.1 due to a serious bug, so that this should not be used):
- Uninstall LyX 1.5.1,
- uninstall LyX 1.5.0,
- uninstall MikTeX 2.7 _completely_ (note that MikTeX 2.7 is a beta and not for
daily usage!),
- uninstall MiKTeX 2.6.
(You need admin priviledges of course).
- Restart your PC,
- now reinstall LyX 1.5.1 using the complete version of the LyXWinInstaller (with an open internet
connection!).
Then it should work.
Ok, they say:
* Palatino. To use this font, do not select Palatino in Layout?Document,
but rather insert in the preamble:
\usepackage{mathpazo}% instead of package palatino
\usepackage[scaled=0.9]{helvet}%
\usepackage{courier}
insert in the preamble -- how do I do this?
(menu Document -> Settings - Preamble)
But please read the intro and the tutorial manual before you proceed! It's all explained there, and
if not there, then have a look at the EmbeddedObjects manual.
