I need help with 6970 and GUI MINER BAD

So i finally got in 5 different pcs today that i got the ati 6970 put in.

And so at first, I turned it on and was all excited to start mining. Ive already been mining using the gui miner on my normal desktop like a charm

So i turn on the 1st of these new pcs, and the catalyst control center (CCC) keeps crashing. I'm like wtf.

So i finally go and uninstall it, and then i reinstall it and now it seems to be working fine.

Then i go and try to open gui miner, and i get a windows error message. It says

c:\documents and setting\****too long to type but correct location*****\guiminer.exe
"the application failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect please. Reinstalling may fix this problem"

Well theres nothing to install its just a extracting file. Someone please help me. I'll answer any questions.

Btw the opencl should be installed too. It was included in the driver i downloaded from ati, in the CCC. and I also downloaded it separately and installed it as a separate thing just to make sure. But that was only after the problem was already evident and out of desperation, i dont think it did anything but overwrite what was already there
