Folding with 8800gts problems?

[jfenwick]

So thanks to some direction here I realized I could fold with my 8800gts, figured I'd fire it up to see how it works vs the SMP client. Anyways, having some problems, was hoping someone can clarify what I'm doing wrong...

Installed the CUDA drivers/toolkit, etc: Download CUDA Code - complete and free toolkit for creating derivative works

Installed the GPU2 client (177.35): http://www.stanford.edu/group/pandeg...tray-612b8.msi

And all seems to running properly as I see the protein and the progress...except for some odd stuff:
1) Can't minimize and if i close the window the WU starts over.
2) [edit]Known bug[/edit]
3) Even if I leave the window up to finish the WU it doesn't register upon completion so no credit for the work.

What type of PPD should I be expecting with the 8800gts?
Any ideas? Experience?

Hello,

All of this is already addressed. The PPD stuff you can find right at the forums of F@H. But we have a thread already dedicated to the GPU Beta Client.

Folding@home GPU2 6.12 beta 6

Not to mention our already in place F@H topics:

F@H - Team tech forums Milestone Clubs
The New, Hopefully Bug Free Folding@Home Thread!

Best bet is to ask in those topics are they are geared toward F@H.

Cheers,
Mak

Thanks for the re-direct, I posted over there....wasn't sure where to put this. I didn't find the beta client thread when I was searching around.
