Hi - I finished my last work unit and my computer has been trying to get another for well over an hour now. I have restarted, read the common errors article and still don't know what to do...I copied my logfile and here it is...could one of you tell me what to do in simple terms? :rolleyes:

Thanks,
Stacy

    sorry guys - not simple enough for me... :confused:

    where is my workfolder? where do I go to do these things?...(like "click on...")

    Do I uninstall folding and reinstall?

    well, I found them, deleted them, then didn't know how to restart folding so restarted my computer....still won't work.

    I also have 2 red cog things at the bottom of my screen now instead of 1.

    Edited - now it works...sorry. PATIENCE STACY. :rolleyes:

    OK, it actually started finally on one of the cogs - how do I get rid of the other one? It comes back when I restart the computer...

    Go to your Startup Folder in the Start Menu. Are there 2 links to folding in there or just one.
