No error logs are generated during any attempt to launch the game, at least by the game itself. The only log I receive is in windows event viewer (posted below) and from FAF (also posted below).
Steps to reproduce:
1) Open FAF
2) Try to host game by doubleclicking Forged Alliance Forever, then clicking Host Game
3) Open task manager to watch forgedalliance.exe briefly appear

Alternately:
1) Browse to C:\ProgramData\FAForever\bin
2) Doubleclick supremecommander.exe or forged alliance.exe
3) Open task manager to watch both briefly appear (then vanish)
Here is what I get from windows event viewer every time:

Presumably (!) this is crashing on either loading the library into ram or attempting to execute a nonexistent function call?
Anyways, things I've tried:
1) Tried running the executables from cmd with the /log 'helpme.txt' switch. No luck, no logs produced
2) Tried running as admin
3) Tried logging in as admin, then clearing the read only bit, then running as admin again
4) Tried running in compat mode for sp2 and sp3
5) Tried running with /nosound
6) Disabled comodo and bitdefender
6) Let steam run its install of directX prior to launching FA, then running FAF
