The reason people aren't helping you is because this is much like oblivions oblivion.ini. its specially made for your computer depending on your specs. So unless we have the same computer I dont recomend using this.
I am also using the 4.0 Beta

Since you say it is crashing on the intro video you can set the SkipIntro value to =1 instead of =0 and that will take you straight to the "main menu" of the game without processing the intro. This may let you get to the options screen.
