Steam install, or the installer from the factorio website, either one will open a window, which stays white, and creates a log file.
Game never starts at all. First purchased last night.
Edit: Looks like it's a bug caused by having multiple monitors running on multiple GPUs.

I posted a report immediately after you, but your logfile suggests it was a duplicate of your issue.
Namely, crash when you have multiple monitors running on different GPUs:

Can you confirm that it works when only running monitors on one of your GPUS?

Can confirm, disabling my secondary displays solves the issue.
That's a super big issue for me. Screws up a lot of stuff that I'll have to fix after every time I play Factorio. =\

Thanks for the reports.
In Steam, set Factorio launch options to "--force-d3d", that should fix the issue for you now.

Indeed thank you very much Posila. I was actually sort of dreading starting up the game again today.
