Give it a bit of time. You should show up there within 24hrs of completing your first work unit. Make sure you have set up F@H correctly with the right team number and so on :) In case you are not entirely sure, have a look into my sig and click on the bottom link. We explained it there.

its weird because at hom ei didnt get any file on my desktop but im at school and i got a my folding.htm and it has all my stats there .. but im ogin gto se how often i can fold at school:D
 
Im sorry about my disappointing stats, as i cannot get on the computer anymore during the week at my home, and therefore do not get any folding done. Ill try to do as much as i can on the weekends, however.

Can you just let it run all the time, or do you shut down your computer for the week?

My computer upstairs (the A64 rig in my sig) is a family computer, my parents dont want it on all the time, and i dont have F@H on my family's accounts. I dont have internet on my Celly rig, and i dont think they would let me run it all the time. So, im pretty much screwed all around. If i had money i would just get a QX6700 and run it constantly but... kinda short on the $ side.
 
Funny, its just like Napoleon said,

"A man will fight hard and kill just for a colorful ribbon" ...........er, something like that...

You could run F@H as a service, and then it would run regardless whether someone is logged on or not.

How do you do that? If i could, then i would just turn on the computer every day whether it was needed or not.
NVM, i made it a scheduled task to start on windows startup. I hope this works.

The best thing to do would be to install it as a service. Download the console client, and when you open it, it should be in a DOS window. The first time you load it, you will go through the settings, and enter the required information. There should be an option for "install client as a service".
 
FYI: 7.1 Drivers for folding

For your information:

ATI's 7.1 drivers for Vista work with GPU folding, however, the 7.1 XP drivers don't.
 
No worries, i just told Windows to start F@H on startup as a scheduled task. Now i just turn on my computer when i leave for school and sometimes at night. yay!
 
F@h Rules

Ok guys, we have managed to revive interest in F@H and we are picking up our efforts yet again, thanks to all of you loyal members as well as those that are joining. Thanks to YOU, we are on the 556th position of all teams on the planet! Now that's something that I believe merits recognition. Way to go and KEEP ON FOLDING!

BTW: If any of you are wondering where I get all this information from, see this: http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/team_summary.php?s=&t=44358
