Anybody having probs with the smp client on a quad core?

Ran fine the first time thru (about three weeks ago) but blew chunks after that. Deleted, reinstalled, blah, blah. Same thing. Dies not long after beginning to process.

I downloaded the regular client and started a couple instances and all is well.

The smp client is still going very, very well on an overclocked dual core.

Very odd. The SMP client was designed for the quad core in mind.

Overclocking or hardware instability comes to mind. F@H is a serious memory tester at the higher end and will find bad chips.

I suppose that its better to run 4 instances of the regular console and collect points that way rather than an endless series of of EUEs. It is a beta program ...
