Can not get the current release to launch. Displays the splash screen and then immediately crashes. Is there a way to capture a log file to see why?

HELP!!!!

Make sure that .Net 4.5.2 is installed.

You can enable the logs with a command line switch: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/posts/50478/
I have solved the problem!

The logging instructions provided does not work with B4J, at least I was not able to make it work.

Problem documentation is as follows;

The difficulty is associated to the Radeon Graphic Processor, and a known bug that they have been working on. They have released a BETA version of the drivers which resolve the issue.

In application event viewer the failure is identified with the following info, with atiumdva.dll being the clue to the faulty issue;

The following link takes you to where you can download the 15.6 beta software that fixes this issue;

The updater will immediately tell you that there is a newer version although not sure it contains the same fix at this point.

The logging command line switch does not seem to work with B4J, although I have solved the problems anyway, see below.

The issue is with the Radeon graphic processor.
The application event viewer of windows indicated the following, with atiumdva.dll being the clue to the actual fault causing the problem;

The following link will allow you to download the 15.6 Beta release of the driver and this resolved my problem.
