No Gui - Han Solo - 2020-07-27

I have installed the 64 bit kodi and when I start Kodi I get the following "Error: Unable to create GUI. Exiting." I tried installing the windows store version and then O get an error while installing.

That's a bit disappointing, it could be that the hardware you have is incompatible (usually a graphic engine failure) or some software gremlin. In many cases, installing the latest Visual C++ Redistribution can solve this issue as one of the download archives was missing this item. Suggest to download Kodi 18.6 from link  then re-install 18.7 over top. Should that fail we would need a proper debug log as described here. Log file/Advanced (wiki) you will have to follow the steps in section 3. The Debug Mode code to add to the advancedsettings.xml file

Which graphics card in your Windows machine is supposed to do all the hard work?

Intel® HD Graphics 2000 (Sandy Bridge) ... That should still work, right?
Could you try running LibreELEC from a bootable USB stick and see if Kodi runs?

Desktop Resolution: 1280x1024 32Bit at 64Hz

64Hz seems an odd refresh rate, this could be the issue.

FTL: FATAL: DX:Big GrineviceResources::CreateDeviceResources: unable to create WARP device. Rendering in not possible

I take it that is a laptop with limited memory and gfx functions...? You didn't have debug turned on via the advancedsettings.xml as noted in post #2 Suggest you heed Klojum advice in post #5 and try LibreELEC.

I'm not sure if I did correctly. I dl the LibreELEC creator set it to Raspberry Pi 2 and 3 and got the 9.2.3 version. After I created the image I rebooted to USBTongueMAP in boot menu and all I got was blank screen with a blinking (underscore) cursor.
