Hey Guys, just joined the Team as Surfinguru(www.overclockers.com)/Team#32.
Gotta quick question, I'm running Win2K, loaded the graphical client v2.15. Installed w/o a problem. When I click on the sys tray icon, the window pops but there's nothing in the window other than the frames. Mouse disappears every so often. Whats up with that? Shouldn't it be showing me something else?

Something is surely wrong... did you get the correct version for your OS? Have you tried installing the application again?

Ok, went to the front page, clocked on the JOIN HERE link to F@H page. Redirected to d/l page, chose the first client listed:
Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP Graphical client (includes screensaver for Win 95/98/ME)- recommended
Installed, right clicked sys tray icon to configure. Entered name and team number.
Checked the WIN task manager. CPU usage is @ 100. Soooo, that would imply that it is indeed running but its just not showing the cool little display that I assume it should be showing.
Maybe I should just uninstall and go with the straight console version?:eh?:

Welcome to the Crew! Not sure why your not seeing the display on the graphical version but it sounds like it's running properly and you followed the correct links.
If you really don't feel the urge to see what's being folded, the console client runs faster and racks up the Work units quicker.
Either way..welcome again! Fold on! :D
