It sounds like it's finding the incorrect version of this dll -- perhaps 
there's an extra copy of afsrcp.dll (and perhaps others) somewhere on the 
system left from the 3.5.x install. Try uninstalling AFS and manually 
verifying that it is *completely* gone. Be sure to check the PATH env. 
variable as well. (if you're comfortable with the registry, the keys are 
HKLM\Software\TransarcCorporation & 
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\TransarcAFSDaemon) Once that's done 
(& rebooted), the OpenAFS1.2.7 install should be fine.
Good luck!
