Ultimate Guide To Folding@home

I think I'll just pause my hard earned little weeny WU until the server comes back up.
If I'm gonna get stuck with these damn Tinker units at least I want credit for them.

Lamsey...last I looked I was still 1000 points ahead of you.
I believe that I can mosey along in this lane for a while longer before you are inconvenienced. :P

Slinger,

Especially when you're folding Gromacs your CPU-temp can go up quite a bit.
For me this was a serious problem as I'm addicted to "silent computing" too, having a low airflow rig etc.

When you fold (and you should when you have your rig running anyway), keep an eye on those temps.

EDIT:

Motherboard Monitor is fine freeware to keep an eye on your CPU and HDs.
Regard the 65 degrees Celsius mark for your CPU as a border you shouldn't cross.

Han.
Thank you very much ! Will download and install the app.

Damn SS went down when we was talking about this...

Cheers:

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? [/b]

If they aren't your PCs then don't do that. [/b][/quote]
not sure what's going on (in general) but OK

I'll use my own PC and check it out when I get back to the UK :)
 
mine already has the sse boost without the forcesse flag.... ;)

thanx for the tip m8

FOLD ON :01:
 
Ok, so it was a glitch I guess as the one that was gonna take like 20 years is now done, but I have something else that seems weird to me as well. It may just be because I've only done like 28 WU's, but, I just got a Amber Core. I thought it was just Gromac and Tinker... Oh well.
 
Just taking a pic of the teams stats .... thought it would be nice to look back in a months time and see our progress. Here is is:

Hope more take part in this :D

kinda got started on a page for the team, i knwo theres nothign really on it, but what about the layout etc? and also what you would like on the page.

http://www.livy.myby.co.uk/folding/
OK as a start.

I think it would be better to give a link to the F@H downloads page for downloads rather than host it. That way it will always provide a link to the latest version, and provide the versions for linux and Mac too.

Spell and grammar check on the about page might be useful. :-"

Damn ,

My folding stopped for some reason.
None of my work get's completed anymore. at least 2 days of work down the drain.
Deleted my work folder many times now and started over....

Did i miss a update or something? :( :blink:
We have had a few warmer days just now Rock.
Is there any chance heat is the problem?

Like in "Sun shining on your case" or,
"Dust and cobwebs on yyour heat-sink" :ph34r:

Most times when you delete a work unit you'll just get the same one handed out over and over.

Yeah it sucks, been there, done that..... :angry:
 
Anyone able to give me a 5 step guide to 'getting' gromacs.
I read that page but it makes no sense to me and isn't clear. Im not sure which .exe to make a shortcut as the one mentioned isn't in my folding@home folder ot startup folder.

Cheers ........
