Yea, thats what any F@H client has always done...
I installed two text-only consoles, in separate folders, and set them up. You have to give them a different machine ID, in order to run both at the same time.
Actually I don't think I ran all those three clients at the same time. I ran two text onlys on my C2D, and the GPU in a spare computer. Or it was text-only and GPU client on my C2D, while I had spare computers doing text-onlys.

I got smp working on my lappy x2 after a long sturggle with it...
If you want to install multiple text clients, This is what I did...
Install Console 1 to: C:\Program Files\F@H-Console1
Install Console 2 to: C:\Program Files\F@H-Console2
Configure each conesl and when asked "Change advanced options (yes/no) [no]? " answer yes because you need to change your machine ID on your second console to Machine 2
console 1 should be machine ID 1
console 2 should be machine ID 2
Next make to shortcuts to your F@H console's on the desktop and at the -local tag.
My shortcuts look like this..
C:\Program Files\F@H-Console1\FAH504-Console.exe -local
C:\Program Files\F@H-Console2\FAH504-Console.exe -local
You have to add the local tag, it might not work right if you dont. Don't forget the space...
When your done just run the consoles and hit Ctrl-Alt-Del and set the affinity of console one and its processes to cpu0 and set the affinity of console 2 and its processes to cpu1.

Correct.
Not only are the WUs less intense, but they are also worth less points and with two consoles running, each console actually takes longer to finish one wu compared to SMP Running.
Trotter, have you presented you problem to those on the SMP Folding forum as I linked earlier?
Heres Link Again.
