Not sure if anyone has mentioned this before, being computer geeks here, someone may have, but you never know.

Anyway, when you install the F@H client software, it gives you a couple registry entries to allow the client to start with Windows.

If you then decide to use EM to monitor progress and such, you can modify the registry entry to have EM start automatically since EM will also start the client and hide itself nicely in your tray or even be completely hidden, if you want.

Anyway, here is a snippet from the original registry entry...
"Folding@Home\\fah.exe\"

Changing it to "Folding@Home\\em.exe\" will cause EM to start with windows.

The Auto-Start Disable registry entry can stay the same since all it does is empty the F@H registry key.

So, that is it. Hopefully that may help someone who wants to start EM and the client with no hassles.

FOLD ON...
