Decided to give folding a try, wanted to see how my system did. Also it gives me a reason to finish watercooling my gaming rig.

Hey guys, I just started folding as well. Brazen told me of this noble project and I wanna give it a try. I can't promise that I'll be folding 24/7, but a couple of times a day shouldn't be all that difficult. I'm folding with an 580GTX SSC SLI setup.
 
Now, this is where it becomes interesting. I could fold with my GTX295 just fine, but since I switched I cannot start the folding process. My stats are frozen on "Name: User-123", "Team: Team-456" and so on. The error(log) keeps re-downloading a FAH core and that's about it.

[20:15:47] Calling fah_main args: 14 usage=100

[20:15:50] Folding@Home will go to sleep for 1 day as there have been 5 consecutive Cores executed which failed to complete a work unit.

Welcome to the team!
Which client are you using? The one you can download here at EVGA or the one you prolly had on your 295 doesn´t work with the 400/500 series cards
You´ll need this one
http://www.stanford.edu/~...g@home-systray-632.msi
or for ease of setup you can try jedis tracker

Jedi's tracker is easiest. And now you have to switch to nVidia Fermi.

Hey, welcome! 
 
Shame about the card. 
 
EDIT: Since it seems it's working, can't you RMA it after you reach 250K?

I don't really care about the EVGA bucks if that's what you mean, I just like folding :D Anyway I am RMAing 'cause of a really annoying whine so I don't like running it 'cause my head hurts if I can hear it :(

Oooh, I'd be scared of that. I mean, if it's the fan, it might just go *boom*.

I've become a little peeved with how Kyle Bennett treats his forum users and decided to jump ship from Team [H] to Team EVGA.
Currently rocking FAH GPU Tracker V2, folding on a GTX460, i5 750, and X4 460.  Might also be throwing an 8800GT into the mix.
