Folding Forum

There are two possibilities that I can not distinguish between based on what you have posted. First, by default the F@h installer sets it up to have the FAHClient process start up in the background every time the system starts. There is a checkoff in the Windows installer to disable that. If FAHCli...

During a reinstall of FAH some time ago I disabled FAH at startup on accident. It isn't a huge deal as this PC is on 24/7, but after a Windows update the system typically reboots and I'm left with folding "paused" until I start it back up again. Can I enable FAH at startup without an unins...

Thanks everyone. Installed the new GPU after finishing up the WU. As far as folding goes everything went smoothly and the new GPU has been folding for 2 days now. PPD seem to be what I expect as my son has the same GPU and I'm getting similar results to him. Bruce, yes the Finish function is indeed ...

My apologies if this is covered somewhere, I tried searching for my answer, but was unsuccessful. I will be upgrading my GPU and wanted to see if there was a specific way to handle this. My thoughts are: 1. Finish the existing WU. 2. Pause folding. 3. Shutdown the PC and install new GPU. 4. Install ...

Also, do you have sufficient VRAM and are any other applications using VRAM on your system? I have the 6GB 1060, currently during folding I am sitting around 10% utilization. It peaked at 30% in the last 15 hours, but I did some gaming last night. I typically pause FAH while I game. The crashes hav...

If you have't cleaned dust out of your system recently, start with that. If your GPU is overclocked, and this includes factory overclocking, try reducing the clock by a bit or run at reference speeds for your card. I do have an overclock on the GPU. I dropped it 25MHz. We'll see if that helps. It d...

I seem to be getting some random crashes on the GPU side of things. It happens maybe every third day or so, but I get a pop up that FahCore_22 has crashed. Of course it doesn't restart until I close the pop up, which in the most recent case was after 12 hours. Here is where the log shows the crash. ...

Perhaps when the CPU is under load your temps are increasing so the GPU begins to thermal throttle?

I am so confused, and here I thought I was a pretty smart guy.

I didn't try adding the shortcut yet, but if I wanted to manually run the FAH client which executable should I run? FAHclient.exe correct? Now when I do that I get an error that FAHCore_a7.exe has stopped working.

You probably have two data directories somewhere and it decided to use a different one. The software belongs in a read-only directory like "...Program Files..." where anybody load software and the data belongs in a R/W directory where anybody can store or update files AND where nothing el...

This computer was working fine until yesterday. My son sent me a picture of the error, it was FAHCore_22.exe stopped working. It popped up multiple times so I had him reboot the PC. FAH did not start back up when the PC started. I started the FAHClient.exe manually and it acts like a brand new insta...

Welcome to the F@H Forum Familyman_19, Please note that I hoped you installed it in C:\FAHData since during un-installation, it will remove anything under that file path. If in doubt, can you please post the log file? Ensure you include the first 100 lines which will inform us of what the system co...

OK, thanks for the advice. I reinstalled the software again tonight and did a "custom installation" instead of the express. I chose to install the client to the C:/ drive directly instead of the program files (x86) directory. I then noticed that it wanted to install the data folder under m...

I believe it is trying to download the core to a location that requires admin access and is failing as it is being run from a non-admin account. Are you running FAHClient from C:\Program Files (x86)\FAHClient directly? If so, that could explain it. Running FAHClient in that manner will cause errors...

I have had FAH installed on my son's computer for a while now and it was running fine, but I noticed that it had not been running lately. Rather than troubleshooting that install I just uninstalled and reinstalled. It began working again after the reinstall and completed a WU but then stopped workin...
