Why can't I start folding? I'm running a E6400,1gb xms ram , 64 Vista, config for large units, EMIII loads correctly, and is displaying:

Folding@Home Client Shutdown.


whats up? Says I have to log in from the admin account-I only have this account set up as admin on this computer.

Says you can't start it as a service without being admin. Did Vista come with some kinda service manager protection program?
 
It looks like after you ran the FAH502-console.exe you closed the window. If you reboot I'll bet it will start back up
 
Ok, I have now restarted it and left it alone in the toobar. It will run as long as I don't close the toolbar, and EMIII shows good-but I can't toggle it off the toolbar to check stats. I like have to reinstall it every time. Can I check it from another computer?

admin is an account you setup, not administrator.
I'd reload the os and when it come to administrator password , enter one, then you'll be
fine
 
To install as a service in Vista (becaue of UAP) you have to open a command prompt in administrator mode. What I did was click the start button and type CMD. A CMD item will pop up at the top of the start menu. Right click it and select "Run as Administrator". Go through the UAP dialog.

Once you get a command prompt running go to you FAH folder and type the config command. (e.g. "FAH --configonly" or whatever it is, I don't remember) and go throught the steps making sure to select run as a service or whatever. That should enable you to run FAH as a service.

Click to expand...

doesn't matter, in Vista the administrator account is disabled by default, and all users have no administrator priviledges except when UAP is turned off. You are forced to explicitly allow administrative operations via a UAP dialog.

that sucks
 
No it doesn't, that improves the security, think of it like sudo... It's a good thing really.
 
I just right-clicked on the FAH-Console and clicked run as administrator, it seems to be working fine.

I guess I'll know at reboot.
