Okay, because error10's VMware Folding Client was giving me so much trouble, I decided to give another Client a try. I came across Notfred's VMware Client, and decided to give it a try. Very easy to set up; followed this guide to get the Client up and running, but had to do some research before I managed to get FahMon working.
This guide is specific and to the point as well, and it was here that I found my answer to getting FahMon set up correctly. (For some reason, putting in my Machine name didn't work, I needed the IP address instead: \\\\<IP address>\\c\\etc\\folding\\1\\)
EDIT: Another, more reliable method to set up FahMon is explained here, by our very own MadCatMk2! His picture makes it very clear how to set FahMon up without the need for an IP address, making it more reliable over time,
.
The only complaint I have so far with Notfred's Client is that it does not track progress for you, but with FahMon working, it's not a big deal. Here's a screen shot of where I'm at so far:
As you can see, the Client itself shows no status whatsoever, hence the need of FahMon to view your progress. But, as I mentioned earlier, this is not too big of a deal, as FahMon works much better with Notfred's Client than it does with error10's Client (in my experience, that is). Hope this helps someone having problems with VMware SMP folding!
