I run F@H on normal CPUs, and ATI GPUs. I attempted to run the nVidia F@H, but the driver installation required for this was a mess. Crashed all the time too. If they got the power, great, but they don't have the programming expertese to make this worthwhile. Oh well. More wasted time and money. I'll stick to the easy and still powerfull ATI solution.

No problem with Nvidia F@H here

Even if it was a mess, it is still worth it. What, you don't think an eventual opportunity to LIVE LONGER is worth it? You do realize that this is partially about extending lifespan, right?

I ran the FOH client on my 8600GT a couple of times, but it kept crashing at about 40% of the way through each unit.....

You have to use this with the Nvidia CUDA drivers as well (which are still in beta), you can't just pop over to Nvidia.com and download the latest driver...google nvidia cuda drivers and click on the first link.
