Anyways, I have followed numerous guides involving creating a bat file with parameters like "cgminer.exe --scrypy -o stratum+tcp://url of your pool:port  -u worker.name -p workerpassword -I 13"

And it never works.  A cmd window opens for a split second, then closes.  

On BFGminer I could click "bfgminer.exe" and a cmd window would open: allowing me to manually enter the server and etc.  But it would never detect the video card..


You spelt it wrongly. It should be 'scrypt' instead of 'scrypy'.

Ghash.io offers a pool that focuses on scrypt mining.

You really want to mine Scrypt coins with your GPU? Why not mining GPU friendly coins / algos? There is a dedicated mining software available for GPUs.
GPU mining is turned off by default on current BFGMiner versions. You need to run it with the -S opencl:auto parameter.

EDIT: According to your screenshot, you're connected to the BTC pool which is SHA256 algo.

You will get more help from this board, but I can predict what they are going to say.

That is actually true. Most mining software's disables GPU by default considering their efficiency. If you want to experience mining try cgminer 3.7.2. You can find it here: https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=14809.0.

I am getting spyware/trojan alerts for that file...
Yes, I get them too with all of my mining software.  Don't worry, there's nothing wrong with it.

Any ideas?

I'm trying to use other miners but I just can't figure out how to work them =/
