In all of your cfg inputs dealing with windows path statements, you need to use
double \\.  Such as:

Domain fidonet c:\\sbbs\\fido\\outbound 1
log C:\\sbbs\\binkd\\binkd.log

Same goes for all your inbound folders as well...

Plus what version of binkd are you using?  You can find out by typing in a CMD
window under c:\sbbs\binkd:  binkd-static -vv 

Also your version of Windows...
