Instead of redirecting to null, try redirected to a tmp file somewhere.  
Better yet, try some strace's to see what's going on (redirecting it's 
output to a file too, of course). Maybe something like:

strace -o /tmp/su_trace su regularUser -c 
"/home/me/folding/FAH504-Linux.exe >/tmp/fah_output &"

or

su regularUser -c "strace -o /tmp/fah_trace 
/home/me/folding/FAH504-Linux.exe >/tmp/fah_output &"
