    Error starting new client

    Just did download of new client. It hung trying to contact the server after the download. I pressed ENTER as directed, edited foldit.bat, set options to -if and restarted it. It won't run - gives me:

    The instruction at 0x0044238b referenced memory at 0x0000000c
    The memory could not be "read"

    It won't run, except offline, until it can connect with the mother ship.

    Cultivate patience.

    I had the same error, but I think we are somehow a little premature, because right now it once again tells me "server down for update" so perhaps we got a wrong "sneak preview" :-)

    same here - it conected, downloaded the new client, uploaded the buffered results then did 1 pass of a 96 protein (the updated email says it will be a 127) then crashes...gone back to the old client (from another boxen) and running all PCs offline...

    me too, looks like something is fuxxed.

    I might run F@H for a laugh in the meantime.

    Regards

    That's more than shitty after the last few weeks.

    Cultivate patience.

    Update: Just downloaded clients from the download page. All have started fine on all OS's.

    Our apologies,

    The new client became available a little earlier than it was supposed to. I guess it affected a few quick and eager people

    Things were back to normal around 6:30 PM EST in case you are wondering.

    I think it affect quite a few auto-updating people as well

    Any chance of having the correct version pushed out again for those who caught the bad initial auto-update ???

    The problem caused by the "early update" are pusing many of the Free-DC team to the edge of dropping, and moving on to something else....
