I just started folding again after a long absence. I was wondering if its possible to fold for 2 different teams? If so do I need 2 different names? I was just wondering as I was originally on OC Forums. If not will it yank all my points and put them here?

Also, is it normal for it to not get workunits right away? I tried using explorer settings and not, and it keeps retrying. I have yet to get a workunit.

---- Sorry, just went back to try and figure it out and it says F@H is performing system maintinance, so I guess thats the issue.

Yo ucan set different machines to fold for different teams, but you can not use 1 cpu to fold for 2 seperate teams.

If you start folding for our team now, it will start you from scratch :) get a fresh start I always say ;)

Good deal, I'm crankin em' out as I type. May not be the fastest machines in the world, but I'll try to do my part. Wish I could trade my 7900GTO for an ATI card and use that as well, but what can you do.

From what I have heard/learned/asked, you cant run the ati folding and the regular folding at the same time or it just cuts down on your cpu folding so much it actually hurts you in the long run. I think you are better off running the SMP client to get that dual core crankin :) SMP REALLY gives you more points than running 2 seperate instances of f@h.
