Based on the log file it looks like C:\Documents and Settings\Beth's Computer\My Documents\My Games\VDrift/VDrift.config still doesn't exist, could you verify that's the place where you put the VDrift.config file earlier, and also double check that Windows didn't automatically put a .txt on the end (and then hid it) or anything?
Sorry this is being such a pain to get working. I'm almost out of ideas here, but I think for the next release I need to include a bug reporting tool or something that would allow collection of more detailed data.

Here is the log file. Appears to have changed. Program still does not run. How do I check for hidden files? Edit: sorry, looked again and no change.

in explorer window "Tools" -> "Folder properties" -> "View" at the bottom of the list: "Show hidden files and folders".
And make sure that config file has ".config" extension. it's in the same location and named like: "Hide extensions for registered files".
I've got localized win so everything is AFAIR.

Fixed. File was hidden and had txt extension added on.

It looks like you set a resolution that's too high. If you delete your
C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\My Games\VDrift\VDrift.config file it will reset back to the default. In the next release the plan is to automatically reset it back to default if this fails.
