Thanks for the warm welcome folks,

I left it running last night and it has decided to change cores don't know what tis means.

Any ideas?

By the way, I was thinking of changing the avatar, but if it still makes people smile then I'll keep it.

Regards,

Alan.

When I got this new computer, I noticed that the GUI v5.03 was running on only one core so I started checking to see if I could get the other core running as well.

With some great help from the F@H Forum, it seems that I may have just got the console up and running but the last 24 hours have been a marathon.

Anyone interested in the saga can read about it HERE.

Cheers

cranking up Processor # 2 as we speak

edit: having issue's with Xandros, Debian, XP Pro(non-legit), Win98(also apparently non legit) but I will be up and running soon

just for the record the non legit copies came from HDD's that were supposed to be wiped when I acquired them.

Never use illegal copies it makes life crappy on you and your computer tech

Just two quick questions, Is it possible to run F@H on another PC using the same username? And is it possible to run F@H on Vista? Thanks

Warm regards
Kyle

Don't know about Vista but I imagine it would work without any problem.

I'm using the same username with 2 computers and 3 cpu's without any hassle at the moment, so get all your friends to run it with your name :thumbsup:

The Vista version is out.

You can use the same user name on 2 PC's just login as your name and team #.

Anyone know how to make F@H console 5.04 work for Xbuntu??

Hmm, tried to install it in Vista, it just initialized the install file, then stopped, for some reason? I got it running on my other XP PC, thanks :thumbsup:
