1) Same way as with the other clients, just click the icon.

2) With it being a DOS window, you can't send it to the system tray like you can with the GUI clients. You can minimize it, but it will still appear in the Windows taskbar. Or you could run it as a service.

3) Close down the client and then go to the F@H SMP folder in Windows Explorer and open client.cfg in Notepad.

This is mine:

Code:

[settings]
username=TSF_koala
team=85015
asknet=no
bigpackets=yes
machineid=4
local=8

[http]
active=no
host=localhost
port=8080
usereg=no

[core]
cpuusage=95
checkpoint=5

Change cpuusage=xx to the required number, then File > Save (not Save As.... this will change the extension from cfg to txt).

Restart the SMP client and check in Task Manager to see the CPU level.
