Using a Application.cfc, couldn't you use this.mappings['/'] to specify a root? Anyway, Apache has no issues setting up vhosts, which is what you want. I don't see CF properly setup at all in that configuration, did you run the Apache_connector.bat script inside the CF8/bin/connectors folder? You have to configure that script first before you run it, but once it's ran, it should be good to go.

I got everthing to work great, but just can't find a relavent example of how to setup a vhost for local development on a windows machine that has all access to all files. I dont really need any permissions on a local dev site on my laptop.

I finally figured out the problems. I had to use the command line code to actually display my system32 folder and then I just editted the /drivers/etc/host file. All works perfect now.

Thanks for the information though

Heh, I forgot to mention editing the hosts file. Sorry about that. :|
