where does the w2k pro store the error log files?
i got an error while playing a game and one dialog box said windows was making a log file for the error, where do i find it?
thanks.

What game? Some games write the files and store them in the game "system" folder. For example, Unreal Tournament does this. You could also try looking in the "Windows" folder, a lot of log files are kept there.

its soldier of fortune.
but if its within the windows folder what is the name i should look for? i know the ext is .log, right?

I have no idea what the name would be, probably something familiar to the game. My guess is the exstention would be .log or .txt .

Good luck :)

In you Administrative Tools folder in your Start Menu, click on Event Viewer. All the program logs/security logs are stored there.
