alright. i start up the console, it does all its stuff. gets a project and then just sits at 0 out of how ever many steps. i have reinstalled countless times, but nothing works. my first install worked but would reset itself to all the default settings when i restarted my comp. any help would be apreciated.
 
Lets start with system specs and what client you are trying to run and take it from there.

 
How long are you letting it run before you kill it? It can easily take 20 minutes per step on some older CPUs. When I first started, I didn't think it was doing anything either, but I did check task manager and it was showing 100% so I knew it was doing something.

Others more familiar with AMD chips will be better able to tell you what kind of frame times to expect.

 
welp specs are in sig. im running the 6.20 console client. i did get to 500 of 25000 steps after about 30 minutes. this is way slower than when i started. i finished a WU in about 8-10 hrs at first. BTW im running vista x32
 
my folding is only around 50% but will spike up to 80-90 occasionally. i would run it for 10-15 minutes ant it would not do anything. i just need to get a 775 proc for my P35 mobo and then ill do a bit better i suppose.
 
I think you got a larger WU and those take longer, but you get more points.

From the sound of it, everything is running fine.

If you want to max out your points I might try the SMP client, or running a 2nd instance of the client your running.

 
Sounds like you picked up an Amber... Those would take ~8-12 hours on my E8400@3.6ghtz (if memory serves)
