.NET 4 has a new CLR.

If I install the V4 framework on a PC will it install if there are NO earlier framework versions on that PC? Also, will my WinForms applications, targeted at .NET 4 run smoothly with no other framework installed?

Yes your app will run smoothly. .net 4 is not dependent on previous versions.

.Net 4 is dependent on something called Windows Imaging Component and Windows installer 3.1

I know the 3.1 installer is not and I'm pretty sure that the imaging component was not
