I tried to install the AMD catalyst package, tried 11.10,11.11 and 11.12 and 12.1 preview. All of them won't work.
I even tried to reinstall windows(clean install), it still won't work
My OS is windows 7 x64
The reason is "side by side configuration is incorrect"
I have installed visual c++ 2010 redistributable (both x86 and x64)

I went to event viewer
and got this
Code:
Activation context generation failed for "C:\Program Files\Common Files\ATI Technologies\Multimedia\atimpenc64.dll". Dependent Assembly Microsoft.VC90.CRT,processorArchitecture="amd64",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",type="win32",version="9.0.21022.8" could not be found. Please use sxstrace.exe for detailed diagnosis."

so I did sxstrace, here is the output
Code:
