Trying to install AMD proprietary drivers

I have downloaded the proper driver from the web but every time I try to open, it says not responding or will open in gedit, take forever to load, then say there was an error.


In the driver file it's marked as run as program. Am i missing something?


I believe I figured it out. .run has to be run through terminal. I tried installing from the terminal and got the following results:
