Re: Win 7 unable to sleep via manual or timed

I had disabled/removed the GPU in the FAHControl and I had no WU started when I tried to sleep, or even have FAH running or so I thought. I am just a normal user not a power or institute running 24/7. I have a deep respect for those that can dedicate a computer to fold, but I am not one of them nor ...

Win 7 unable to sleep via manual or timed

Windows 7 pro 64. I've been pretty active folding so I have not wanted to use Sleep mode since installing FAH. I've now spent the last hour trouble shooting why I can't sleep by any means. After trying Powercfg with no good results I backtracked and decided to try uninstalling FAH and now I can slee...

Can I adjust my GPU usage?

Can I reduce GPU usage and if so how. I do not want to run my stock cooled 780 @ boost speeds continuously. My case if very breezy but everything is stocked cooled for now. Currently I have removed the GPU activation via FAHControl/config. FAH 7 has made it much easier for the average Joe to fold wi...

Re: I need a shortcut while on USER account to run Folding

Ok thanks Bruce!

I haven't even looked at the "points". I am doing it for the science. I may not contribute much but a little is better than nothing ;-)

Re: I need a shortcut while on USER account to run Folding

I tested by simply pausing the unit and did a reboot and hit Fold to continue working on the same unit. Behold I think I have it set for my particular use. Once again thanks for correcting me and getting me pointed in the right direction with a professional, intelligent and gentle touch. Well done!!...

Re: I need a shortcut while on USER account to run Folding

I've uninstalled/reinstalled and "Moved" the Folder from the admin's Start Menu/Programs to the user's corresponding folder as well as the Folding@home shortcut in the Startup folders. There is nothing in the admin folders now. Everything seems to be working correctly. Is this what your lo...

Re: I need a shortcut while on USER account to run Folding

I Seldom log in as the admin. I now have these three processes running while I am the user
FAHClient.exe
FahCore_a4.exe
FahCoreWrapper.exe
I think I understand what your saying about running as admin and concurrently as the user. Does the above show that is happening now?

Re: I need a shortcut while on USER account to run Folding

Ok I have it working and have access to it when I am the user account. I had to copy the entire FAHClient Folder from the admin acct to the user acct. Now I have all the same abilities as the admin.

Re: I need a shortcut while on USER account to run Folding

Folding is running while I am using the User account now but I have no access to it. I want access to and control of it.

Re: I need a shortcut while on USER account to run Folding

I've now used all install options with the same results. I can NOT Start Up this program as a USER. This has been a long time problem if I remember right as I have tried using Folding several times before. Perplexed!
