Ultimate Guide To Folding@home

Just started a tinker, this CAN'T BE SERIOUS!

On an Athlon XP 3200, this thing won't finish until next January!

Is there anyway to kill the current project and start new one?

Seti is better in my eyes, nothing against it - both are useful...

I used long time Seti@home, but finally prefer Kazaa running ;) But, no Seti is nice...
 
yeah, clockers pretty sklow at the mo, but i was finding it hard to ctach up with him. hes only slow the now as hes working on sprocket, and now its sprockette i think.

i may be looking into running my 2500 overclocked, when i look into better cooling, and maybe a mobo upgrade, as mine doesnt support vcore changes.

do you use the -forceSSE switch on ur amd machines?
 
We seem to be losing a lot of CPUs, time for a public relation campaign...?

Wrong, if that was the case, it would be saying more than just 1 active processor in Bigdawg's profile.

He has so many WU's because he overclocked unstably, and was bouncing WU's instead of completing them, they finish one frame, and fail and send in the work to the server, this, a WU is done, but no points are recieved, and a new WU is downloaded.
 
I've just joined in the fun...

Cpu=P4 2,5

Errr, dumb question: I've got a laptop so I won't let it on 24/7 (more like 16 hours a day) because I don't want it to overheat... Is that bad? :unsure:
 
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.
 
Thanks lynx.

If I do this, then the only difference is that I will have 2 separate wu's going? It will not use more of my processors capabilities? Sorry, this new computer setup is new to me and I want to be sure I am using it to it's full potential.

I am kinda confused about the HT technology. Do I really have 2 separate processors or does everest just report it that way?

I can see 2 separate cpu's listed and how much power is being used by each, however according to HP I only have 1 processor.

Anyway, thanks for you help. Hopefully I can use this computer for good as well as evil;)
