This problem has been solved. Thanks!

Config would not parse the backslash, so I had to escape them so \ became \\

        ca "C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\config\ca.crt"
        ca "C:\\Program Files\\OpenVPN\\config\\ca.crt"


The tunnel came up and an IP was assigned to the Windows box and I could SSH in 
:)

Really thanks lots for your help.
