How does it work? when I open it it just closes out.

Anyone got any suggestions?

Are you trying to get it to run on the rig in your sig? If so, the GPU client is currently only supported on ATI cards (http://folding.stanford.edu/FAQ-ATI.html). No nVidia at present time.

Hey guys I am a long time SETI guy. I just saw a little bit about F@H started doing GPU stuff. I was thinking AWESOME! But then I found it was only for the latest ATI cores. Are they working on a version for nvidia, and if so when is it coming out? I'll switch as soon as I can run it on my 6600GT. And if I could somehow get an email notification when the nvidia version is available that would be awesome. :D :cool:

I wouldn't expect that 6600GT to fold in your lifetime :)

According the the FAQ's etc at stanford, i would not hold my breath waiting for gpu folding on any of the current nvidia cards ... but possibly on future ones if they can do 32 bit precision on floating point. As i recall, that was one of (but not the only) the main reasons for not supporting nvidia atm.

Only G80 or better is likely, if at all. Thread here (http://forum.folding-community.org/viewtopic.php?t=16684&highlight=).
