Oh trust me I've tried that and my CPU unfortunately doesn't have VT support

Do I need VT to run Linux in a VM? Just checkin...

Seems like I left it alone for about 2 months and it was able to install again which is odd, this is a pathetic hissy fit if I've ever seen another one like this

So it is now not showing you the "fail to install service" message but the mpich service fails to start?Any other suggestions to how I could get it up and running Fox? I've tried taking it to the folks at the folding forums but I haven't seen a reply there in ages about the SAME problem...

Better make it a sticky just in case...well add to it anyway
I tried the installation AGAIN for the n-th time and I happened to PAUSE my GPU client and guess what...IT WORKED
Well now the SMP client is running, and yes with the -smp switch in the command line
I didn't know that the GPU client can cause that much trouble, it was only using half of the maximum cycles and yet it can cause an installer error, or should I say batch file execution error
ReAp3r-G wrote:Yes sir, very interesting indeed
It is folding, but at the same time fighting for cycles with the GPU client, although I can safely say that it is on track and will complete on the given deadline...no problem
