I recently installed kodi on my second computer an when I try to open it, it shows an "unable to create GUI" error. I am pasting the logs here:

Code:

INFO <general>: Running with restricted rights

There could be any number of issues happening when running restricted, retry Kodi with "Run as Administrator" and see if it has any different behavior.

You probably have the wrong or old or no drivers installed for your graphics module. Line 295 shows Kodi is unable to access the graphics module...

xml:
ERROR <general>: DX:eviceResources::CreateDeviceResources: unable to create hardware device, trying to create WARP devices then.

Line 260 shows you have only two resolution settings, and they are a bit of an odd selection. You should have at least the traditional 1920x1080 @50 or 60 Hz

@Karellen Based on the CPU/GPU it's likely some sort of netbook variety which is why it has strange resolutions.

Code:

AMD A6-7310 APU with AMD Radeon R4 Graphics

's likely some sort of netbook variety

Yes, it does sound like a laptop or notebook. Maybe it does not have 1920x1080 resolution? I don't know the exact specs, but it does support DirectX 12, and Kodi needs a minimum of DirectX 11
Almost anything build in the last 12 years should work ok with Kodi, so when it doesn't its usually a system setup problem

That feature level message means the installed gpu driver does not support DX11 Feature Level 9.1. If you're using drivers from the maker of the pc you're using then try snd find suitable drivers direct from AMD.

Thanks for the advice. Apparently it was a display driver issue

[haiderali]

thank you so much !!! i had recently re-installed windows and hadn't installed the graphics driver yet.
