So I read the guide twice and then started. Everything whet perfect until I tried to config the file Folding@home-Win32-x86 that I renamed to fah6. Type everything perfectly but it does nothing. No errors or anything.
It look like this:

C:\Documents and Settings\gkanakis\FAH>fah6 -configonly
C:\Documents and Settings\gkanakis\FAH>fah6 -configonly
C:\Documents and Settings\gkanakis\FAH>fah6 -configonly

It just does nothing after I type in the "fah6 -configonly"

Any ideas? Thanks

System:
Asus Rampage Formula
Q9550
4 gig of Corsair ram
GTX 280
Windows XP

Ok it fixed it.
Next problem....
I don't understand this one....

Additional client parameters []?
You can enter the client flags here so you don't have to type the flag each time. I strongly suggest you enter the -smp -deino -verbosity 9 flag here to make things easier. Don't enter -config or -configonly or any single-use flag to avoid issues.

What do I enter?

Enter -smp -deino -verbosity 9.
 
Ok completed setup.
I type in "fah6 -smp -deino" and I get a "mpiexec has encountered a problem and needs to close."

Hmm, I don't know then. Try installing the MPICH client instead and see if that works.
 
which 32 bit?

if it's Vista, you need to have the console running as an admin when running install.bat.

by your screenee it isn't.

BTW I've never successully gotten DEINO to work. I always given up and used MPICH every time I've tried..

 
This is a total pain!! Both clients crash! Time for bed and maybe I'll try it again tomorrow.
 
Make sure that you're running it under an administrator account as well.
 
My account is "Computer administrator" and "Password protected"
I'm running Windows XP Home 32-bit.
 
I don't know then. Try uninstalling the client completely, reboot, and reinstall MPICH and see if you can get it to work.
 
Mpich client is working now. Does it use only 25% of CPU usage or should it be 100%?
 
OK, the program keep crashing but it finally went through. Folding 4 cores. Will see in the morning! Thanks alot for your help! I've been up since 1am my time and it's 9:30 now. Little tired and ready for some sleep. Again thanks for your help!!!
