Although the client does most of the work using your GPU, it is coordinated by your CPU - it is an application like any other. The CPU settings aren't all that important since one GPU client will not use very much of your CPU time.
If the GPU you want to fold on is not your primary GPU, then you may need to create a shortcut to the gpu.exe [or whatever you named it] in the client folder. In the GPU shortcut properties in the Target box, you need to add -gpu 1 after the path to the exe... so it might look like this:
note the -gpu is outside the quotes and there is a space between -gpu and 1.
You will then need to use this shortcut whenever you launch your client. The next thing is, if you are on Vista or 7, you will need to have a monitor plugged into the GSO for the folding client to work [monitor doesn't need to be switched on, or it could just be a second input on your current monitor if it supports multiple inputs].
