Hi guys,

Having a problem on a box installed with Win95 OSR2. Everytime the screensaver kicks in (not the F@H one, just flying windows set real slow) the F@H icon for the gui client dissappears from the system tray, not immediately, but when I next try moving the mouse over it, pressing ctrl-alt-del still shows the FAHcore running and it still seems to be working away but it's really annoying that I can't check the status. I can rerun the GUI and it sometimes works, but often leaves me with a window where all the info and the molecule display is blank, and it doesn't seem to update, sometimes the molecule display will come on, but not the status and info.

I'm getting kinda annoyed with this, is there any way to fix it?
This isn't happening on a Win 98SE box I've got with same client.

thanks,

Road Warrior

i wonder if this is related to the videogame problem in this thread
http://forum.oc-forums.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=120640

maybe it is something that you could bring to vijays attenion and see what he thinks about it. have you considered running the console client and an addon?

hopefully vijay might be able to work out a fix for this and/or the video game problem

why run any screensaver though? that's gonna be slowing down your folding no matter how slow - i just set mine to power down the monitor after 10 minutes

same thing for me rich. i run the console and never realized how much proc power a screensaver took to run. i would go to bed and wake up with some huge frame times, so now i just have it turn of the monitor:)
