Not working my folding client

Post by ValerieAnn28 »

I have nvdia version 441 but its not working or moving or doing anything, plus Im not lking the fact that I can't choose corona virus and have to support other diseases or the fact that I am told to join French or other mainland groups when all languages is foregin that I don't understand. I purposely was interested in doing this to help with corona virus period nothing else. Its a shame you wont allow people to just do that considering a bit more important than everything else right now!!

Parts of F@H are overloaded with the enormous response to several social media references. The team are working on adding additional resources, please be patient. Just consider what it's like for the researchers who are generating many times more work than a week ago.

It has not been possible to add Coronavirus to the "Causes" list without releasing new software. But Coronavirus projects have been given maximum priority on the servers, you will receive them whenever they are available.

The first part of her question wasn't answered, and it's my question, too: why is everything still set on 0% across the board? What's up with that?

You do not need to join a team, leaving that blank puts you on the "Default" team 0 which is not associated with any group, country, etc. The rest of the question has been answered, so many people joined at once that the servers can not keep up with all requests. Eventually work will be assigned, it just takes time.

P.S. You can also leave the username empty, you will fold as Anonymous.
