I have just  installed the 480 video card on my QUAD, Win7 machine.  Also, I have installed the software clients for both the CPU and GPU.  The CPU software seems to be working ok.  However, when I run my cursor over the GPU software version, I get the following message:
 
          "GPU - F@h: Attempting to get work packet"
 
It has been that way for almost a day.  I have made all the tweaks that, I think, were necessary in the software setup.   However, nothing has changed.
 
Am I just being impatient, or is there something else I should be doing?

    The client I had linked in the other thread is the GPU3 beta. The older one does not support the fermis.
    Youd have to look for
    fahcore_xy
    and the foldingwhatever.exe

    It´s trying to download a core which is not supported by the 480 (fahcore_11)
    Uninstall your old client and install this one
    http://www.stanford.edu/~...g@home-systray-632.msi
    then go into your folding folder and delete the following files
    the entire work folder, the queue.dat and the unitinfo.txt.

    I think you have already downloaded a wu, but the 480 can´t run it as it does not support fahcore_11. That´s why you see all these errors

    Good catch.  The answer is indeed usually in the logfiles :)
