Only been running XBMC for about a week so not sure how I'm already running into problems. Anyway...

Just tried installing the 8-10 nightly to no avail.

Guess I forgot a few things, at any rate...

Eden v11.0
Windows 7 SP1 Professional
64 bit
4GB RAM
AMD Radeon HD 6800 series - 8.980.0.0
AMD High Definition Audio Device - 7.12.0.7706
Other devices: Logitech DiNovo Mini

Detailed Instructions to Reproduce the Problem - I double click the icon and it crashes on startup.

Welcome to the XBMC forums, and thank you for being pro-active and providing your log and system info.

Looks like you are using the Aeon Nox skin. There have been some recent reports on the Aeon Nox subforum about XBMC crashing at launch using the latest git. Try switching back to the Confluence skin to see if this allows XBMC to run. Since you can't do this from the GUI, try editing the guisettings.xml file in your userdata directory. Locate the <lookandfeel> stanza and change the <skin> tag to:
Code:
<lookandfeel>
   :
  <skin>skin.confluence</skin>
   :
</lookandfeel>

Save the file and restart XBMC.

I didn't have a guisettings.xml file in C:\Program Files (x86)\XBMC\userdata\. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong spot? I created one anyway and it still crashes on startup. My guess is I'm in the wrong directory.

edit: er, yep, I'm in the wrong directory. Made the change, XMBC booted up. Brilliant, thanks for your help.
