Looks like a problem with you connection to the server that allocattes WU's.
Try restarting the client, restart the OS, check if F@h is allowed trough the firewall.
I had some "no news WU's from a server, check i-net connection, will retry in few mins" - it wasn't a big problem, and was solved with restarting the client or reconnecting the internet.
If this not helping, I don't know whats wrong, ask some experts here!
 
Yes, as Macaholic said, remove the work folder, unitinfo.txt, machinedependent.dat, queue.dat - all these from the Folding folder.
Then restart the client and check if the problem is solved.
 
OOPS I called my 950 a 920:eek:
I got the 950 GPU2 to run now...

I completely removed the clients on the 920 and reinstalled them-no good.
I then installed V7 client - it will not run at all...When I run the FAHControl
I get that it is not configured properly...after 3-4 installs - no change :bang head

I'm going out on a limb here Mark. Are you starting it from Programs? Or the downloaded exe that installs in programs? A DOS command window isn't appearing is it? Is it configured to auto start? Otherwise it will just sit there.

Have you gotten at least to the point where you entered your identity(name, Team # 32)?

For grins and giggles, be sure that all of the following are still being met;

"Note: Although Pande Group has yet to provide a list of software prerequisites, donors have reported three issues. First is that Microsoft .NET Framework is required by V7 FAHControl in Windows, and Windows XP does not include .NET Framework by default. Microsoft .NET 2.0 or newer should be installed to support the V7 software in Windows XP. All newer versions of Windows already include a supported version of .NET by default. In addition, Windows XP needs the 2008 C++ Redistributable (32 bit) for the FAHClient to operate. And depending on your network configuration, IPv4 may need to be given priority over IPv6 using this Microsoft Fix It tool."
 
Thanks, Mac...net framework was needed.
I had a very minimal install...:)

You are welcome. Thought it sounded familiar. I ran into the same message when I pulled my K9A2s out of the closet and upgraded them with 590s. I had to install quite a few updates to those old XP installs. :thup:
 
Mark its the 21st century! :p:D The last XP rig I worked on I vowed never to touch another... Just to get a browser was a PITA. The one that installs is no longer supported.

Coures I have also vowed not to use Win 8...So the sooner we get Win 9 the better. If I could quit gaming I could just use Linux and OSX.

Glad you got it running Mark. Hurry up and pass me while I have some down time, fixing my lone rig.

Very generous offer...I need more powah...cant afford it...wifes cancer treatment is expensive with insurance...:(

How do I monitor V7 with HFM...can't figure it out:confused::bang head
V7 is on another computer on my home network.

V7 is on another computer on my home network.

In HFM you'll add a v7 client. Give it a name leave the port 36330, and for address you can put in 192.168.0.0-192.168.0.255. That will cover all the posible address's the v7 client can have. No password needed.

On the rig with the v7 client go to the command box, in the start menu and type ipconfig . Use the Ipv4 address (192.168 *.*) and add(Click the "Add" button at the bottom) it to the client in the left panel. There will already be a local client there.
