Hello
FearoftheNight, glad to see you're interested in joining Team AnandTech. I see from your message that you are not certain that you've gotten everything set up correctly, so I'll try to explain it as easily as possible.
First, you should download a client (get it from
http://folding.stanford.edu/ on the download page). The screensaver client sucks and is not recommended. The Graphical (GUI) client can be brought up to see the 3D simulation, or sent to live in the system tray when you're not using it. This is the preferred method that I recommend for those who are new to distributed computing programs, since it is rather easy to set up. If you want to do something fancy (like run the client as a NT service on Windows XP so it runs even when noone is logged in and is totally invisible when they are) then you'll need the command-line (CLI) client. However, unless you feel really motivated about doing some hard work to get started, I'd recommend that you stay away from that one.
During the installation of the GUI client, you will be prompted for username and team number settings. If you didn't enter the username you want and the appropriate team number ("198" for Team AnandTech), you can change those settings now through the preferences option of the context menu of the Folding@Home icon in the system tray).
Assuming those things have been done properly, you should show up in the statistics within a few days. If not, shoot me a PM or ask in the DC forum (preferrably prepend something like "F@H:" to your thread title so I'll be sure to notice it ) and we'll try to do some troubleshooting to see what could have gone wrong.
Oh, BTW, I noticed from your rig profile that your machine is running a good overclock. That's fine, and if it's stable with memtest86 and prime95, then Folding@Home
should work fine. However, Folding@Home is very stressful on parts of the CPU that even Prime95 doesn't work out that hard, so it can reveal potential problems that you never knew existed before. F@H normally doesn't complain that verbally if something's wrong, so I'd suggest taking a quick scroll through FAHlog.txt (it's in your Folding@Home folder) every other day or so to make sure you aren't seeing anything like "premature work unit termination" or "simulation instability has been encountered."
FWIW, here's a little tutorial on the setup of the GUI client. Now that you've got the job done, it may not be of much use, but anyway...

Hope this helps, and if you have any more questions, feel free to ask.
