I've installed, but how do I know it's working
I seem to remember this same problem last time I tried it. How do I know if it's working? I've had it installed for over a day, had my computer sitting idle for some time - but it still says nothing about any presence on the team or points. Am I doing something wrong? It's down in my tray next to the clock, showing progress of ##/1500 (and then starts another).
I have specified a username and team number in the config.

Help.
Grab FahMon and point it to your F@H directory, it'll give you all the info you want about the current status. You will not see anything on Stanford's site or EOC until your first WU is done.
I'll be on for another hour so just ask away.

BTW, welcome aboard again John.

What are you running ATM, SMP/GPU or a systray client and which OS as XP and Vista put them in different areas? Also depends on the client you're running. Don't worry, I'll explain all the acronyms in the AM.

EDIT:Geez man, my memory comes in dribs and drabs.
