just had the same thing happen to me... lost 6 hours of production...

Just go to control panel, remove the old F@H client and download the new version GPU2 6.20 here - http://folding.stanford.edu/English/DownloadWinOther

Here's what's new in the 6.20 client:
* Added Forums to systray menu.
* Support cpu affinity by default, this is related to an nVidia problem and awaits core-side changes.
* Add additional parameters field in advanced preferences - no more shortcut editing!!!
* UNSTABLE_MACHINE count reset after a correctly finished WU, for long-running systems
* Open configuration dialog box when invalid settings detected
* Fixed core launch directory which caused auto-upgrades to fail if core was present in "Program Files"
* Added additional advanced config options to console clients
* Added MachineID selector in systray gui
* Client shows PRCG on results upload
* Passkey now validated for hex content
* Moved service installation to advanced config to prevent inadvertant use
* Log date and time when automatically attempting to upload results.
* Correctly restore system tray icon when shell (explorer.exe) crashes
* Significantly improved queueinfo
* Multiple copies of the client can no longer be started with the same "start in" dir
* Automatically increase packet limit to max size for results that are too large
* Failed uploads will be attempted again using alternative upload port (8080->80 and 80->8080)
* Removed spurious "benchmarking..." messages
* Added extra_parms support to console clients
* Extra parameters are validated at configuration and launch time. Invalid settings will force reconfiguration
* Fixed and updated service installation to allow use of working directories
* Added ATI FireStream 9170 detection
* Compressed Vista icon to reduce size of executable (saves ~ 200kb)
* Updated MyFolding.html to match folding.stanford.edu style

You shouldn't lose anything (except for the time). When i reinstalled to the same locations, it picked up the work that had been done and completed the unit. Fortunately, I probably only lost 15-20 minutes because I shut down to reboot because of an update and then the client wouldn't restart.

The download link has been updated in the GPU Install Thread, http://forums.legitreviews.com/about16437.html

Seems like the new client is running a bit faster than the old one with my card. :)
