I keep hearing the Linux thing as idea to fix it. Do you know where I would download a bootable version that would work?

http://www.linuxliveusb.com/

This tool is AMAZING for putting linux onto a USB stick and leaving your windows install alone, if you have good internet you may as well pick a distro like Ubuntu (or one of the lighter weight Ubuntu versions) which should have the most support for AMD I believe

And... why is it better than the around-forever unetbootin?

http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/

Preference, I guess, unetbootin didn't work for my intel atom netbook but LLUsb did

Cool, I was just reading about Ubuntu which sounds like a good option. I have an 80 GB hard drive and 4 MB. Is this gonna work for me you think?

I've tried uninstalling and removing all AMD drivers and everything. When I go through the device manager can I browse for the driver so it picks it up? What would it be called?

looks like , your amd sdk is missing, just reinstall driver, and opencl should be found by gpuz

get some CD/DVD bootable linux, and see will the Radeon work under it properly.
Maybe your card is faulty, or just Windows (driver).

I have a Dell 320 Dual Core with the HD 6670 installed. The driver is there and I have tried (about 100 times) to get the AMD Catalyst driver to work. I can never get the card to show up in Guiminer as an opencl. Also, when I do the GPU-Z thing it shows the card and says that no opencl can be found for it and the driver is missing. I am at a loss on what to do, I have tried so many different combinations it's ridiculus. Any, seriously any, help you could provide would be great.
