won't launch. windows 7, 64bit

So when I launch the config tool, the resolution select box is empty, and it won't allow me to start, producing an error message that's literally just ??????????????????. The game starts fine without the config tool, but I want to run it in 1920x1080. Any way to do that?...

I am trying to play this game but my ship veers up and to the right immediately and cannot be moved away from that corner. The menus are unusable, being only able to use what the cursor defaults to.

i had given up on this game ever being released

When I try to launch, I get the preparing to launch box for a second, and then nothing (just Steam Update if I haven't seen it already) Anybody know what to do?
