Download the console version into its own folder, and run it. Put in the name of your choice, and team #32.

Yes, when I refer to console, I mean the text version. Sorry, still used to version 1.x speak.

You have to make a shortcut with the -config switch. or you can get the 2.17 ver. here (http://folding.stanford.edu/beta/) . I do not know why they did not make 2.15 ask for the config info but 2.17 does or you can just use the config switch. The 2.17 also has timestamping in the console so you can see the time.
