I downloaded, setup, and started running the program about 3 or 4 days ago. I am only at about 10%. Am I just slow or does it take that long? I also run SETI and I get a lot more work units per day on that. |

| Are you trying to run the SETI client at the same time as the FAH client. If so, that would be your problem. The FAH client is polite and will let SETI take the cycles.
If not, then what speed is your processor?

Yes, I am running them at the same time. I might need to set Helix up on my other computer. |

| Yes, that would be the problem.
It's nice when FAH is running on your main machine, because it won't slow you down and you don't have to stop it every time you want to do something. Not nice for the frame rate, though, if you are constantly running something else CPU intensive.

| If you are running XP or simialr look at your task manager to check what CPU cycles are being allocated to F@H and what to SETI.
If you set F@H to run on idle SETI will take all the spare cycles leaving F@H with the dregs. The only way to get SETI and F@H to run together is to set F@H to run on low priority and then up the priority to normal from low.
Its a bit of an art but of course the easier way is jsut to stop SETI when running F@H and visa versa.

| I tried playing with setting priorities in task manager for awhile. Problem is you have to redo it every time you start the client. With a number of clients, too much trouble for me.
