I'm on it and should hit 25,000,000 today. I run it alongside BOINC with no problems.
I'm having trouble finding our team, so what is the team number as the team name doesn't seem to work. have only add one machine for now because I have never done this before.
Team# 51524

Be sure to also assign your passkey to each client too. You get more points if you do that.
ok I will do that, anything else I need to know about this.
Use the advanced client, instead of the web client. If you have more than one machine folding, you can display and monitor them all on one machine.
Slide the folding power slider all the way to the right "full".
If you want to maximize folding, then don't run BOINC at the same time (and vice versa).
After you return 10 tasks successfully, and are above something like 90% successful, and use a passkey, you will start getting significant bonus credits too. You can check your status here: https://apps.foldingathome.org/bonus
By default, the FAH client will fold on both your CPU and GPU at the same time (separate tasks for each). If you want to (for example), fold on your GPU and BOINC on your CPU, then delete the CPU slot from your FAH client. You can always add the deleted slot back later.
Before deleting any slots, be sure to set them to "Finish", and complete the in progress task first. You want to avoid aborted/failed/abandoned tasks when possible. See the bonus comment above.
You are now showing up as a member of the team with credits. This page has lots of good stats info, both for the team and you.

I had to shut it down last night, about midnight my computer started over heating and shutting down. don't understand why it ran all day without a problem then had one at midnight. I'm thinking I might have a problem with my CPU cooler going bad, so will try to get a new cooler put on. I will set folding up on another box for now.
Fired it back up.
FOLDING@HOME TAKES UP THE FIGHT AGAINST COVID-19 / 2019-NCOV

Added a newish lappy with a quad core i7 to Rosetta and Folding@H.
dallasdog and Ron Shurtz are killing it for us right now.
I just looked in on the stats for our team. 8 active members. Wow! It's been a long time since we had that many. I am just about to start again with some of my slower GPUs (for now).
Just attached to SETI.USA F@H team, most of my gpus are on it but some often have to wait for work. Looking at around 300k ppd if current metrics are accurate.
Wish I could keep both machines rolling.
Just added a GTX1080... :D
Anyone having the issue of the GPU just not picking up? Mine is just stuck with "downloading"
EDIT: Sorry for the watermark, but you can see through it.

That happens when the servers are out of work to hand out, or when they are overloaded. Or both.
I moved my GPUs off of F@H for now. Tired of them sitting idle a lot of the time. And frankly, they have more volunteer resources than they can use at the moment.
It happens to me often.
I click on the GPU line and check the "Next Attempt" time. If it is more than 30 minutes, I quit FAH on that machine and then start it again.
It will then check for a WU immediately and start over on incrementing the next attempt back off times.
I have had next attempt times of over 5 hours.
Stopping and starting FAH usually gets me a WU much sooner.
When WUs becomes available, you may otherwise be sitting on a lengthy next attempt time and miss out.
I don't babysit it often, but I check from time to time and do the stop and start to get GPU WUs when I see long next attempt times. :D
Cool! Thanks Z! I'll give that a try.
