basiliskiigui won't open, did previously
Ugh. Had an apocalyptic time with the last Windows 10 update and wound up having to reinstall the system. Unfortunately Basilisk II was uninstalled, and when I try to open up the BasiliskIIGUI the program starts opening and then does nothing. Something about the new install isn't working with it, even though it had been working with 10 earlier. Anybody have ideas on what I could do about this? Thanks.

The BasiliskII GUI uses GTK, if I'm not mistaken. You might just need to set the GTK environment variables in that case.
What happens if you try to run the GUI executable from a command prompt window?

I hadn't tried that, but I did discover something big I'd overlooked. The SDL library version I was using was the 32-bit version, and I've got 64-bit Windows. Once I switched to the 64-bit version things started working. Wasn't able to use the latest version of Basilisk II, but a little monkeying around and I figured out what worked. Thanks for replying.
