I will change this behavior in near future: nginx will try to write to stderr
before fallback to event log.

> So nginx uses the default path "c:/nginx" before it reads the paths from nginx.conf? Is there any chance that I can specify all the paths (i.e. temp, logs, etc) in the configuration file?

Yes:

error_log  d:/nginx1/logs/error.log  notice;

etc.
