As you can assume, English is not my natural language. Apologies in advance, if it is bad and poor, and please be indulgent.

comment Set margins of A3 landscape site with KOMA-Script
Please add a full minimal working example (MWE) that illustrates your problem. It will be much easier for us to reproduce your situation and find out what the issue is when we see compilable code, starting with \documentclass{...} and ending with \end{document}. For the graphics you could use one these images provided by the package mwe.

MathJax is not TeX! I don’t know, whether it will be useful for you, but let me point you to MathJaX Help Forums.

comment How to update MiKTeX 2.8 to 2.9 in WinEdt?
I’m sure, this is not a real solution, but a (bad!) workaround. I do not know, how WinEdt usually finds the executables, but it seems to me it can search the system path. So you should do, waht Ulrike already suggested: Check the environment variable PATH and if needed remove the path to MiKTeX 2.8 from it. At first put this in the command prompt on your system: echo %path%.

comment LyX & MiKTeX installation problems on Windows 7
The Windows API error 5 is as far as I see caused by permission right issues. A search with your favorite search engines should give you some results. Also here on TeX.SE we had a question, you should read this: Windows API error 5: “Access is denied” when trying to compile TikZ picture.
