Hello guys,
I just thought I would share my experience folding in both Windows Vista 64bit and SuSE (linux) 11.0 on the same machine.  On the Windows Vista client I downloaded the latest stable single core version.  I have found that it folds at least 6x as slow as the client I have in my SuSE partition.  I have an Intel Core 2 Duo 2.33GHz, 1333fsb, and to me that means that at the most I should be folding at only 3x the speed of the Windows one... :-\  hmm....  I would have to say that I am probably going to do most of my folding under linux until the 64bit one for Vista comes out.  Watch out guys, here I come :)

The only settings that you'd need to be concerned about is in the User tab. All other settings can be left at the recommended settings. Once this is done, simply make sure the folding @ home icon shows in the bottom corner of your screen and it should be fine.

Are you sure this is not running in the background. You could try opening Task Manager (CTRL + ALT + DEL) and manually ending the Folding@home task or you may want to just reboot the computer and if it's not running on boot (you don't see the icon in the bottom corner of your screen) then try opening it.

If you've got that (working (0/500)) it's working on a unit. It'll take time to increase. But as time goes on that 0 should increase.
