I could swear this came up on the glaunch mailing list...

I'm not sure, but I believe he posted a special test version for XP users to see if it would help or not...  but It's possible I'm confused... *shrug*

(If I find a link/info, I'll pass it along... )

Well I've tried everything that was suggested.  Still doesn't work, but there is no need to worry.  I'll just find another frontend or make one.  I don't even hav my cab made yet so this was just for testing.  If you do find a link to that special test version that would be very apreciated, becuase I realy like this program.

rampy:
found the thread in my email... from the mailing list... not sure if it'll help.. but maybe you can help Dave, help you...

I have a request for anyone seeing the 'Could not create "logs"
directory" on Windows XP.  Can you download this test version of game
launcher:

  http://www.dribin.org/dave/game_launcher/gltest.zip

The zip file contains a new _gl32.exe.  Make sure to rename the
original so you can put it back.  Then put the new _gl32.exe in your
Game Launcher 0.9.8 directory.  Now run the following from the command
line (i.e. cmd.exe):

  _gl32.exe 0xdead 0xbeef

Hopefully you will get some stuff printed to the console.  If you can
cut and paste the output and mail it to me, I would be grateful.

Thanks, and feel free to ask any questions before trying this out if
you have any doubts.

-Dave

I had the Could not create "logs" directory in glaunch and could find little help so I am replying to this old post to help others. I found that you get this error on XP (and probably win2k) computers if you are running glaunch located on a large NTFS partition (I suspect larger than 8gig). If you move glaunch to a separate partition that is FAT32 or a small NTFS partition under 4 or 5 gig, glaunch works fine.
