Ultimate Guide To Folding@home

  • Athlon XP 2600+ with 1024MB DDR333, running 24/7 (my PC, mild constant usage plus occasional bursts of high usage ie. games)
  • Athlon XP 1700+ with 256MB DDR266, running 24/7 (mum and dad's PC, zero usage a lot of the time with occasional bouts of mild usage)
  • Celeron-M 1.13GHz with 256MB PC133, running most of the time at 66% (my laptop, sometimes off for several hours if I'm taking it into uni, plus I limit it to 66% throttle as I don't want to stress it too much)

A WU is a work Unit. You have a tinker work unit and it will take you up to 4 days to complete. After you have completed it, it will be uploaded to the server and after a short time your name will appear among the team members names on the team page here http://vspx27.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/main.py...e&teamnum=34905 Your score will be added to the team's score. Each work unit that you complete will be added to your name. Please read the guide at the beginning of this thread for more information... oh and welcome and thanks for joining our team!!! :)
 
I suppose you are right, it just seems like so much of a waste to not do so... Oh well, I'll just stick to the three I own, and maybe try and convince my father to do it as well.
 
What's going on here?

If you look at the 24hr points avge, in most cases it is the weekly points divided by 7. But not always.

Livy: 61=395/6.5
Lamsey: 55=339/6
Dr Spud: 15=72/5
VB1234: 66=397/6
SummerLinda: 20=66/3

I realise that the stats are new and will probably correct themselves once they've been going a little longer, but can anyone explain these anomolies?

edit2: im also working on WU 858 which is a 2500, and is taking about 45min per percent, its huge, buts its worth 160 point. :D
Click to expand...
What processor is that on?

I'm running 2 of those atm, it takes about 23 mins per % on my XP2500 (oc'd to XP3200) and about 35 mins per % on my XP1700 (not oc'd).


@FlyingDutchman: Better get ready to move to one side, don't want you ending up as roadkill. :lol:
 
I'm back on with a much faster computer. As soon as i can get my old one back up I will have them both going:)

But I cannot seem to get this new comp to use it's full resources. It has a 3.2ghz processor and 1 gig ram but it will not go any higher then 50% of it. Any ideas of how to get it to use more? I even lowered it, restarted then raised it back to high and restarted again with no luck.
