all these things are speculative you cant be dumb with bitcoins any more than you can be with dollars, but at least with bitcoins you have a chance of turning things in your favor

yes it is. and its a pretty big power supply, like 800+

All 5 are

Its XP PRO
3-4 gigs of ram
ati 6970 2gb
and amd processor i forget which but newer

MY experience this far was this.

I turned on the pc,
It loaded, I put my gui miner folder from another pc onto it,
then, it wouldn't start gui miner,
I was looking for solutions when a box popped up saying "Ati control cannot continue as your gpu is not supported"
I'm like wtf, so i look for the ati driver thinking that maybe its related to my guiminer problem.
I uninstall the ati catalyst control center, then reinstall it
initially it seems ok, but guiminer still wasnt working
then i decided maybe i should check windows update
got a Microsoft 3.5 .net framework update, now gui miner came up

Yay! Or so i thought...
Immediately i got the ATI catalyst center saying this was an unsupported gpu again.
I'm like wtf, and its not showing up in the guiminers list of selectables.
I uninstall the center again
reboot and try to reinstall, this time, the install seems to never be completing, 20 mins go by and its on the same bar
I knew something was wrong, I shut it down, continued to uninstall it again
Then i went to install it again, went fine.
Loaded up gui miner, no ATI 6970 in the list

I nerd raged and shut it off.
I haven't even touched the other 4 yet.
I dont know what to do, ive read some other people had problems with thier drivers and 6970. Anyone else?

sounds like im not alone, but i dont know what to do.

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

I think that if the exchanges can get their heads on strait, that the bitcoin will go to about 100 a bitcoin then encounter steep resistance and probably fall.

The fact is, people are already exchanging a fair amount of goods and services for bitcoins. So really, the fundementals of what makes money "money", are now in play
