Ultimate Guide To Folding@home

Damn.
My computer goes down for a few days for service and look what happens...bushwhacked!

Time to get serious again.
No more Mr. Nice Guy.

BTW, congratulations Team...we've broken into the top 1000.
Didn't really take all that long either...where'd we start, like 6000something wasn't it?
 
I should be third when the server comes back online.

Clocker, please keep to the right lane (damn Americans and their back-to-fornt roads :P ). I'll be zooming past you soon :devil:

OK - I'll hook it up when I get back home........but is it possible to leave a cybercafe running it off 20 PC's?

It was just a thought.

What sort of crash is it? BSOD, reboot or just freeze?

I used to find that my system would just freeze when running F@H, until I raised Vcore. Other than that it was usually alright, except if it got fairly hot after about an hour of game playing, and then the same thing would happen. Cured that problem too.

Freeze in both F@H cases. It was frozen from when I left uni until I got home (I was checking the PC using VNC in uni)

I don't really want to up the Vcore, running 46 degrees c at full load at the moment (Athlon 2700+, aluminium HS), I might give it a try if I get more instability problems though, cheers :)

congrats VB1234

I just joined this project, I'm gooman528 (from my e-mail addy), but can't yet see my name on the list yet, probably because i just started, i don't know.

Anyway, I got pentium 1.8 GHz, with 256 RAM

Great! Welcome.

Your name will show up on the list a bit after you complete 1 full work unit.
 
The Folding@Home client (console or screen saver) shows real time visualizations of the protein simulations being performed. The molecule drawn is the current atomic configuration ("fold") of the protein being simulated on your computer

There are also many other distributed computing porjects like seti@home (involved in the analysis of signals picked up from space) and fightaids@home.
