  1. I have had this problem, too. I'm running newer i7 processer, Windows 10, and two GTX 980ti. I've tried all above, but, here are a couple of 'tweaks' that I needed to do on my machine to get FAH to work: 1) make sure to uninstall all previous versions of the FAH client using the Control Panel uninstall. During uninstall, when prompted, check the 'data' box, too. I also deleted all previous versions of the FAH install application (file named fah-installer_7.4.4_x86.exe; it was in the 'C:\Users\[userName]\Downloads' folder). 2) I restarted the machine ... just to ensure it's a 'clean' boot. 3) I re-installed the FAH client from http://folding.stanford.edu/ 4) At the end of installation, a screen appears that prompts me to push a 'Finish' button - DON'T DO IT! I let the installer hang while I copied the GPUs.txt file into the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\FAHClient (yes, my location was in a different location) 5) then I pushed the 'Finish' button back in the install application window. The FAH client then recognized all my GPUs. Good luck!
  2. Linus, Your OC video on the Intel 5820 saved me from … well, distraction. I was bored over the winter and decided to build my first multicore system with my first custom water cooling loop. I read the forums, reviews, etc. The i7 5820 on an Asus Deluxe motherboard seemed very do-able and affordable, so I set to ordering the parts. At first, the Asus AI Suite software was achieving remarkable overclocks of 4.5, and, once, even 4.7 Ghz. Then would come the weird anomalies like the system clock re-setting itself … to 24 hrs later than the current time; going from 60 FPS in BF4 to single digit FPS; and “Failed Overclock” messages on reboot. Then started the over polite “little boy blue” screens of failure. I was spending way more time in my BIOS than I thought anyone should. I feared the worst - a purely defective chip. Nothing worked until I was scanning LMG forums about 5820s – and, I think it was Nick who’d posted the link to your OC guide … Wow. All is now bliss. LOLOL. Again, Thanks! ### Asus X99 Deluxe motherboard 32 GB Corsair DDR4 2666Mhz LPX Intel i7 5820 2 x EVGA 980 Hydro Copper in SLI Mushkin Scorpion 240 GB PCIe SSD (boot drive) 4 x Crucial MX100 256GB SSDs in RAID 0 (applications and data) All under a custom water cooling rig.
