You can read about it here http://foldingforum.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1784&st=0&sk=t&sd=a. Also, you can dload it from the reagular spot here ...http://folding.stanford.edu/English/Download.

To summarize briefly: "*what's different in 5.92*
With version 5.92, we have switched to a different MPI implementation (DeinoMPI instead of MPICH). In our testing thus far, this new implementation is *much* more stable for FAH."


I'm unzipping it over the old client since it is and update to the 5.91 and I'll see how it goes.

    No. At the time the thread csimon references mentions that they haven't compiled it for 64 bit operation yet and that those with 64 bit OSs are having difficulties. Use 5.91 for now if you are running a 64 bit OS ....

    Alright, I'll try and get to it tonight and try it on one of my machines. Maybe I won't need static IPs anymore.
