you should mention what OS your using, and as for drivers a lot of those programs where build around 14-15 version AMD drivers. claymores are usually built around 15.12.... but as a side note you may have to accept that your card is simply way to old to actually do anything. if your interested in trying out mining get yourself something along the 7000 series and up. a lot more support and info around on them.

Forget about mining on that GPU, you gotta get a real GPU.

Buy a second hand 7950, they are dirt cheap.
