    Hammer: Are you sure you are running Windows 7 x64? It may be a stupid question to ask but me personal experience tells me that you are actually running 32-Bit windows. Please help post a screenshot of your System Info screen. Lastly, make sure you have VT turned on in BIOS though directed IO is optional.

    And there another user that complains about F@H... As previously mentioned, it took me 2 solid days trying to get 3 -bigadv and 9 GPU to fold properly.

    Sometimes a server runs out of work:banghead: and I'd guess sometimes...:confused:

    When this has happened to me, I select the client, type Ctrl-C, restart the client and hope the damn thing works.

    Okay, however much I do this it refuses to work, could the servers be overloaded? Anybody else having this issue?

    Yup two of my rigs. Let it sit there or CTRL C, reboot or restart and it will eventually pick up a WU.

    CP, what your 5770's getting for points?

    Highly considering buying one to replace my 4850, I know it's not a huge upgrade but it's Dx11 and some kicken green power.

    Are you trying to run install in the smp folder? If so, try opening it without admininstrator.

    install.bat ran fine, and I have the double lines saying that it's working. When I tried to run Folding@Home exe file, cmd windows popped up and exited right after that, I couldn't even see what happened.

    Did you delete the original exe and replace with the 6.29 binary drop-in?

    I was thinking that he forgot the desktop shortcut and flags. Now a question, do I need the shortcut to run the smp?

    No, you can add the flags to the exe in the F@H folder and run it from there. Shortcuts add accessibility from the desktop.
