Fatal Error has occured: Could not create window! - N3oN667 - 09-23-2015

So this was happening to me earlier, and it has yet to be fixed. I uninstalled the game, verified cache, Tried finding my .cfg file to change settings around, and guess what? I can't find a single .cfg file. I'm getting seriously irritated and am about to refund this game. Which is VERY upsetting because this was my most anticipated game of the year.

Try using my config file and starting Soma_NoSteam.exe in the game folder
Place the config file in

This is an old version of the game, restart steam and let it update and then try again.
