DF: Running hidden in win98

[Factor5]

Well.. i have yet another question..... i have a family members machine that currently has DF installed on it, with their approval, except they always close it "cause its in the way"

i was wondering if any of you have had any sucess at hiding the client from sight, or could at least point me in the right direction.


Thanks...

Have you tried running it with dfGUI?

dfGUI is about the best i have found
there are some other hider programs, but i use dfGUI

another vote for dfGui.

You can use the regular run, though choose not make the client visible and keep dfGui in the system tray.

This is what I do to run the CLI version and hide it. But remember if you chose the extended memory option make sure the computer has enough.

go to start, programs, acessories, system tools, scheduled tasks, then browse on over to foldit.bat (remember you have to run foldit.bat once to input the user ID. Then for the SCHEDULE you have to select run at startup. Thats it, its hidden.
To verify it is running look for the file foldtrajlite.exe to be running after rebooting the computer.
