I do not receive anything after> fah6 -configonly -smp
I tried this cmd "-configonly -smp" without quotes with the shortcut in administration as well too but same avail shows the cmd prompt real fast then disappears.

Any idea's?

Read the NOTE on the client download page.

You'll need to download one more file.

Is there some reason you are running the older unsupported SMP client? --> v5.91beta6

The newest is v6.24.

[kpe1950]

Holy Jeevuss um I have no idea, I downloaded the 6.23 then inserted tehdrop in update...
Folding@Home Client Version 5.91beta6 <<wth

There must be something left from behind of something?

This is what I installed FAH6.23beta-win32-SMP-mpich + drop in update

[kpe1950]

Ok I see, I have downloaded and installed the MPICH and Not the (for Deino MPI) 5.92v. , because of the name, thought had a selection between the two , wiki has for MPICH. wiki so wrong outdated or something maybe its my fault.

Edit:
OKOK I am so confused Now, i am using this page http://folding.stanford.edu/English/DownloadWinOther is that the right download section? reason for the 5.91 the 64 bit. is Windows XP/2003/Vista/2008 SMP client console version 6.23 beta for MPICH (32-bit or 64-bit). but then it says 5.91 and not 6.24 I am very confused now...

[7im]

Yes, correct page. Still didn't read the NOTE on that download page yet, eh?

Here it is for your convenience:

NOTE: Please use the v6.23 installer package to setup the SMP client. Then download the v6.24 "drop-in" binary below to replace the expired v6.23 client executable. A new installer package with v6.24 will follow shortly.

Download this: http://www.stanford.edu/group/pandegrou ... -mpich.exe

Install.

Then download this v6.24 update: http://www.stanford.edu/~kasson/folding ... 32-x86.exe

Drop in the .exe on top of the previous version.

Run.

You're Welcome.
