Default Setting up Fahmon with GPU2 client(XP)

This guide will show you how to install Fahmon on Windows XP and correctly configure it to monitor the GPU2 client. As far as I know this will work with both the ATI and nVidia GPU2 clients.

Download FahMon from here: http://www.fahmon.net/download.html


Run the installer and install the client to wherever you like. I usually install it to C>Program Files>FahMon.



















After you've installed the client reboot your machine and go to start>Programs>FahMon-2.3.2b>Fahmon.







Fahmon should pop up and look like this:







Right click on the white space to the left and click "add new client". A small box will pop up and give you the option to name your client as well as locate it. I put HD2400_GPU2 because I'm folding on an HD2400 Pro with the GPU2 client. Next we need to locate the client so FahMon can correctly read its progress. Find your Folding@Home install, usually C:\Documents and Settings\(your username here)\Application Data\Folding@home-gpu, but mine was at C>Program Files>Folding@Home.







Click OK and FahMon should display the progress of your client up top.







Congratulations! You've just set up FahMon successfully.


Please, leave any comments, questions or concerns in this thread. Thanks for reading!

Hey Roke, great job once again. Can you make a slight change? Can you shrink Fahmon so it's not so big, a regular size window would be great. Would that be possible?

Don't have Vista but I believe the set up is a bit different in Vista compared to this Post using XP.

You are correct. Vista is different. You have to point fahmon in a different folder. User/Apptdata/Roaming/folding@home gpu
