Never had any problems myself... Which version are you running? You should use the Console version and install it as a service. I have actually heard of people having problems with the console open when trying to play games. If you are using the console so that you can see it, switch to the version that installs as a Windows service.

I am not sure what version it is... The one that has a little gear or flower lookin thing in the system tray, it also has a screensaver option I believe it is the console version.

I can not run games while the icon is in the tray or the process is running.

Then you have the GUI. You should be using the Console version anyway as it should perform slightly better. Try this and install Folding as a service. Install it in the same directory as your current version and get rid of the old version to keep doing the same work. If that doesn't work, it could be a driver issue. I know of smeone who had problems with Folding running when using a certain version of Catalysts, so we can look into that as well.

Does the console version run in the tray so that I don't have an annoying window open all the time?

No, but you can have it run as a Windows service, in which case you won't see it at all.

Re: New Folding@Home Team - Project Tweakers (Team #63)

I could have sworn I already did.... I even gave you the exact download link. It shouldn't be too hard to install.

Re: New Folding@Home Team - Project Tweakers (Team #63)

Well it wasent hard to install, I just dont get how to install it as a service. All it does is run in a dos window, and if I close the window my used CPU pecentage goes back to 0% so I know that it is closed, and not folding.

Re: New Folding@Home Team - Project Tweakers (Team #63)

When you install it, it asks you if you want to install it as a Windows Service. Choose yes, and when you're done, clsoe the Windows and restart the computer. You'll never see it again.

When I had to reset the bios on my motherboard, I forgot to reset the clock in XP and I finished three WU's in the time between the reset and when I figured out the month said september and it is november. So I just checked my rating and it should say I have 6 Wu's finished while the site thinks I only have 3, would the fact that the months were skrewed up have anything to do with the WU's not showing up?

Re: New Folding@Home Team - Project Tweakers (Team #63)

I dont think it would. as far as I know, the WU is sent no matter what date is on it. It might have been sidelined as corrupt, but it would still show up, even if it only gave you a couple of points.

[Amd_Lover2004]

Re: New Folding@Home Team - Project Tweakers (Team #63)

Seems to me that there is not a lot of change going on in the points and WU's is anyone accualy folding?

Never mind I stand corrected.
