http://folding.stanford.edu/English/FAQ-Configure#ntoc11 Your are going to add customize one slot (your gpu). 8900 has now moved to advanced so follow pics on link for client-type advanced. bonus points start after you have completed 10 work units. The bonus points make the setup well worth while. If you use client-type, beta instead of advanced you will get any beta work units available BUT unless you are a member of the beta team you get no support for any problems. If you have any issues post here for help and we will try to solve them. Good luck.

I added the name "client-type" with the value of "beta" to both gpu0 and gpu1 slots. Hopefully that's all it takes! Thanks for all the help. 
 
EDIT: My estimated PPD skyrocketed from about 75000 all the way to 169050, and both GPU's show running on the 8900 project with the ZETA 0x17 core, so I think I'm already on beta WU's! Sweet!

Good Day,
I am new to Folding, but would like to get my old Socket 775 Board Folding constantly. Have an E8400 running at 4.2GHz 24/7, so it might as well be Folding for a Cause. Please advise what I need to do to be part of the Team and to receive EVGA Bucks to upgrade this Rig to a new Rig. Hopefully to the X79 Dark Board. Thanks to all support.

Download latest client here
http://folding.stanford.edu/
 
guide is here
http://folding.stanford.edu/English/WinGuide
 
use team 111065
and get a passkey for your CPU for SMP folding and bonuses
http://folding.stanford.edu/English/FAQ-passkey
 
make sure your folding name matches your user name (for purposes of EVGA bucks) in your EVGA profile
and your name is correct in the FAH client

 
will someone get a hold of or Shane or Rob and change the EVGA community FAH page
We no longer use v6 or jedi's GPU tracker (because it will not support newer cores and upgrades)
 
and we will have to make a user setup guide for EVGA's website(for v7)

Welcome to TEAM EVGA Ballistic, were glad to have you folding with us!
You can also use your GPU's to fold with if desired. Happy folding!

OK, the only difference with my Forum Name and Folding Name is that the dash " - " is actually a underscore " _ " so, my Folding Name is as Follows: Ballistic_Computers  --- Does this make a huge difference? If so, I will re-register using my folding name. Please advise.

I think it should be fine, as long as it's close.

if you username is slightly different - don't worry
like my user  is Xavier Zepherious - but my folding name is Xavier_Zepherious (because FAH puts an underscore in)
 
just PM rob - it's shouldn't be much of an issue

the main reason for name recognition is so that they get the right user for the folding name and you don't collect points for someone else's name
