I have just  installed the 480 video card on my QUAD, Win7 machine.  Also, I have installed the software clients for both the CPU and GPU.  The CPU software seems to be working ok.  However, when I run my cursor over the GPU software version, I get the following message:
 
          "GPU - F@h: Attempting to get work packet"
 
It has been that way for almost a day.  I have made all the tweaks that, I think, were necessary in the software setup.   However, nothing has changed.
 
Am I just being impatient, or is there something else I should be doing?

    There's a Folding sub-forum on this site -- post in there and you're sure to get some help from someone who's run into this before.

    Good luck!

    Are they getting stuck at downloading or do they just not start the wu?

    Do you have the necessary client for the fermis or are you still using the old one which doesn´t support them
    Here´s the link for the required client

    What does your fahlog say?
    Just right click on the icon. There is an option for the logfile.

    Either the servers are down (I´m at work so can´t check) or maybe your firewall/ router is blocking it

    I'm getting new 10630 WUs so I don't think the server is down personally.  I thought maybe the firewall as well, but I wonder why the CPU WUs are coming through.  Different WU server?

    Yep, each client has different servers assigned.
    I´m wondering myself why the smp client works and the gpus don´t.  Thats why I´m asking for the log. Might contain additional info whats going on
