well... kinda.

Im not sure how many of you remember me, but I got really into folding for a while but had to quit due to financial reasons when I got my own place. I probably wont get as into it as I was, but I'm currently folding a couple WUs.

Yea, I remember you, R3D88! Your username sounds a little like 'R2D2'. I'm itching to get back in myself, but just
can't afford the added expense on top of running the AC, which hardly shuts down. Catch you a little later.

you don't need to do any VM's now. just use the GPU tracker V2. link here.

I need to do this myself, install version 7, I believe I read here that it's a GPU client, maybe even a console client (command prompt window).
Maybe you are already running V.7 ??

FAH GPU Tracker 2 is simply a front-end that manages the install and operation of the older Ver. 6.x clients.

The V7 client is redesigned from the ground up by Stanford.

For the time being, either will work for you to get you up and running with both CPU and GPU folding.

The main caveat I can think of is AMD/ATI folding with GPU3, which I think only works with the V7 client. Someone correct me if I'm wrong on that.
