I have a whole dedicated PC to this type of stuff, I know, PC ugh. 🙄

The only thing the PC has running usually is something else like this and now folding. Should get some high points. 😀

Stupid PC, it keeps shutting down the program every time I try to click into it... hmmph 😡

Are you going to it via the Start menu? Check your system tray for a red gear looking icon near the clock, double clicking the gear will bring up the gui, right clicking will bring up a menu with options. If you set the program to run at startup it should be there. Once a client is running it will not launch a new one. Of course an error message would be nice rather than just shutting down.
 
No, whenever I click something within the program itself, using the GUI I get an error and it closes.

What is the error that you are seeing? If it happening too fast try downloading and running the console app so you can make the command prompt stay up until you have a chance to catch the error.
 
Which winblows ver.?

Ether way, welcome, and "eat my dust"!!!!! 😛

It seems most of the members of the 1600 listed probably need to remember they were doing this, or clear off. No matter what you will move up fast! I am using on dell laptop, xp pro, has a "gear" looking red icom bottom right. Double click as previously said, and the gui pops up! And right click as said works to mess with it!

No, Everytime I click anything I get those stupid windows errors that this program had to close. It's a generic error message, no specific errors.
 
Does the client work until you try to do something?

Have you tried the console client? It should help you earn more points since it doesn't waste precious processor cycles drawing pretty pictures.
