Error 5 Access denied = permission issue. I assume you're on Vista so I second the post above to install outside of Program Files.

You won't be able to get SMP running with ' Both Cards ' as its a CPU client not a GPU client.

To get Fahmon to work under Vista 64
make sure UAC is disabled
run the installer
make sure to change the install directory to C:\Fahmon\ not C:\programfilesx86...
allow it to place a shortcut in the start menu

right click on fahmon shortcut in the start menu and select 'run as administrator'
allow it to update
when it opens right click in the open pane click add new client
name new client
for GPU client browse to C:\username\appdata\roaming\ and select the F@H folder.
right click on the GPU client line in Fahmon and select 'reload this client'
if you have multiple GPU clients repeat for each one

hope this helps

User Account control. It is this annoying vista ''security'' function that pops everytime you try to install something. It might even block your installation or disable your program if you are not under an administrator account. And since I am lazy I wont type the methods and leave you with a nice website :

Well, it doesn't matter now anyway....looks like I just lost one of the 280's and they weren't even oc'd!!!.....no idea what happened but all of a sudden the 2nd card isn't showing so either the card crapped out or maybe the PCI-E slot fried. I shut everything down and pulled both cards then reseated both but no luck, the 2nd card isn't registering in anything:censored::angry2::doh:
