Has any1 else had probs with this program because i keep getting kicked off sites. And i couldnt reply to anything on the forum. So i uninstalled the program and everything works fine now. Im using the program on a dif comp in my house and its ok on my own one. Any one else had simular probs?? :blink:
I have not heard of this problem myself, I'll do a bit of digging and see what I can come up with for you DA.
TL. :cool:
The only thing I have found is:
- PowerDVD has a problem with F@H that appears to be PowerDVD's fault not the F@H client's
- F@H struggles on unstable systems. If yours is overclocked then drop the overclock so that it gets back to perfect stable conditions (this normally shows though as corrupt WUs or F@H client crashes)
- Use of the -advmethods flag can make some systems unstable (but they had to be leaning that way in the first place, much like the overclocked comment above)
Other than that I have not found a single comment about the client causing any stability problems at all (cosmetic issues, yes, but not stability issues).
Are you absolutely sure it is the F@H client that is causing your problems or did you forget to pay your subsrciption to the pron site that kicked you out? ;)

Gotta side with DA here ...
My CS and BF1942 drop back to desktop if the client is running.
Well one reason its prob having dif is that the spare machine is a hp. Just using at the mo caus my network cable to my comp is broke :( . And i havent yet got to grips with the grapler :angry: bloody thing but o well. Ive still got the client on my machine still no probs but cant use it as no connection.

Wierd :huh: I can run those without dropping back to desktop and I have done this with both the graphical and console client. Go figure.....
/me confused....

OK, further research suggests:
QuoteThere are a number of issues relating to programs written in OpenGL, which includes the GUI version of FAH and many games. In fact, WinXP has a bug in their implementation of the tooltips where they don't display properly with another OpenGL application running.
The usual recommendation is that you check the drivers for your video board to see if there is a later version that has better support for OpenGL, but that won't help if it happens to be a problem in Baldurs Gate II.
The easiest fix, of course, is to switch from the GUI version to the no-nonsense Console version, which doesn't use OpenGL.
Do you run the console or graphical version?

This (http://forum.folding-community.org/viewtopic.php?p=38473&highlight=#38473) is another related thread and mentions a possible hotfix.

OK, I have finished my reading on the problem (aka I can't find any more info on it) and coem to the conclusion that all yout troubles will disappear when you switch to the console version :)
Of course my theory will be somewhat hosed if you now come back and tell me you already do.... :blink:
TL. :cool:
I don't but I will do.
Thanks for digging out the info TL.
Much appreciated. :D
no problemo......

Cheers tl thanks for digging :D
No problems here, but I had to install the beta GUI client after the regular one wouldn't even install itself :blink:
