Do you have one core just for the nvidia card and one core just for the ati card? I'm pretty sure that they need different cores.

That guide is basically what's on the fold@home site and I followed those instructions.

I wiped out the core and it downloaded a new core, then threw EUEs like crazy. The core that I wiped out was the one in the "application data" folder. That's where I pointed my shortcut to.

I later tried downloading the console client and it kept blowing up during configuration. So for now, I just pulled the card and may mess with it again some other time (like this weekend).
I would never die for my beliefs because I might be wrong.
