Here is some more info:
I am running Windows 7 Ultimate  32 bit

I get the guiminer software downloaded, extracted, and then when I go to run on the guiminer.exe that error message above comes up.

Need some HELP with setting up guiminer. I am a newb but not totally technically deficient.... that being said I have decided to do Litecoin mining.... i have read forums, articles on the net etc all day. I have created my wallet for litecoin.. joined a pool for litecoin and was good up to this point. I have tried countless times today to download and install the guiminer for litecoin.. the scrypt version. I get it downloaded and extract the files and keep running into a problem when i go to run the guiminer.. Below is the error message I keep getting:

Please please help me get this figured out.. this is driving me crazy not being able to get the mining software up and going.  I am willing to give some litecoin to whoever can help me fix this problem.

Hello. Very new to the bitcoin mining. Yesterday I registered on Bitminter and downloaded the client and registered and got everything up and going. I can see that I am connected, I see the unit works qued up and I can see how many proofs of work have been performed by my computer.When I go to the tools and then statistics page.. my stats are displayed but on the sections where it says you.. it has a question mark in all these sections so I have no idea what my stats are on those parts.. any ideas what I can do to fix this or is there something I can download that will show me my personal stats? Also.. I know this is probably a stupid question.. but how many proofs of work are required to get a bitcoin or part of a bitcoin? jI am using a pretty fast and effiecient home pc and dont expect to get many if any bitcoins but it would be nice to see if I am gettign anywhere. I have been mining for a little over 24 hrs now. If anyone can help me find out how I am doing it would be greatly appreciated.
