Ultimate Guide To Folding@home

If you have a look further down the log you will probably see that it has actually been sent. Either that or it is still sitting there waiting to be sent. You don't lose completed WU's unless you delete the Queue file (or actually tell F@H to delete it from the queue).

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.
 
I've come to the conclusion that the new team stats are screwed. We've just been passed by "p2p_community". But before the new stats there were no threats. And if you look at their individual points they are quite impressive on a daily basis, yet they have zero points for the week.

Since they have the same position in the Stanford lists (which is the source of these stats) I suspect hacking. The top of their group ("Le_PoUnT") supposedly has had 159 active processors in the last week, yet both his daily and weekly points are zero. And he has supposedly performed 842 WU's on one project, but only 1 on each of another 4 projects. Similar trends can be seen for their number 3 "xlybox".

This is obviously nonsense, yet equally obviously the results have been returned to Stanford otherwise they would not have been credited with the points. The only conclusion is that the same results have been returned time and time again.

If my conclusions are correct, then statistically this dangerously skews the possibilities, not only making those results worthless, but undermining a lot of work done by other people.

I hope I'm wrong.
 
Ok Lynx,

I see you in the rearview mirror now, and assume you see me too.

Has anyone tryed running this as a service in win nt/2k/xp?

Anyways here are some direction on how to do it. It seems to work for me. Don't blame me if your comp blows up or something if this does something weird.

First make sure the folding@home Client is properly setup.

Then download the consol version of the client and this. Make sure the consol client is working properly first (run it first).

1. Then make a folder somewhere on your hard drive e.g
 
i just got a WU with 2500 in it! thats a biggie....im at 525/2500 :P
also, will a faster CPU work these out faster? i currently run p4 1.4ghz, and in 2 days ill be running p4 3.2ghz.
