It seems we have a few general discussion threads going for F@H. What's happening is members are posting problems they may have in sereval different locations while looking for a solution. This makes it difficult to reference steps that have already been suggested or taken and harder to troubleshoot the problem.

If you are having issues with F@H, please start a new thread.

List the nature of your problem, your OS, the F@H client in use, and any error you are getting, along with your current log if you are getting an error.

Thanks for your consideration and Happy Folding.

It will also make it easier for others to search for a solutions to problems in the future.

AND things run a lot smoother in the future, it would be best if kept here. I think this should be a closed topic named: "Folding@Home Problems? Read this first!"

I to think it should be stickied and a topic name of something like tech said,,,,,,
@ matt, if you would be so kind as to write something up the way you would like it I will contact mimmo for permission then sticky it.

If you want it just the way it is thats fine and I will edit the topic to what ever you like

OK Doby, I'll type something a little more detailed in word and PM it to you. (or should I just post it here or create a new thread?) Once it's submitted feel free to edit it as you see fit.

I'll include directions on finding the log file and how to attach it to the post.

I won't be able to do it until tomorrow night however. It's getting late and I have some errands to run before work tomorrow.

Great Idea guys, I know I'm one of the offenders myself. If it looks more organized then others will come to TSF with their Folding@Home problems.

I think it may be a little better to have to folders in a way, like one just to talk and then another to have just problems. I just feel that this would give better results to problems just incase they may get lost in the rest of F@H topics. Just a thought though
