Ultimate Guide To Folding@home

Rocky is Folding..

I must say i did not read all of it yet but i am working on it as we speak. ;)

The cause speaks for itself..

I'm happy to be of any kind of help.

looks like something happened to one of lamseys machines too, look at how many WU's hes done, and he was getting no points for it basically.

Ha :lol:

:devil: :devil: :devil: What's bad news for one, is good news for another ! :devil: :devil: :devil:

I've been chasing him since the beginning, wanting to kick his ass.

Maybe now I can do it.

/me starts stretching his muscles :01: :01:


Lamsey, get some painkillers ! :)
 
I'm installing it :D
but it seems that the setuppages are not the same as you posted maybe you have an older build?

{I}{K}{E}

How long does it take to do 1 part/section?
 
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.
 
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'll add a link to the download page for people running other versions, i just put that up as somehting to put on the page the now.

i know the spelling a bit dodgy the now, i done it at about 12.30 last night.
 
im going away tomorrow till friday, so i may be folding a little less, i'll have my laptop with me, and no internet access. so ive got a bunch of the deadline less f@h WU in a batch, to keep it going. and another machine may be off too, so i may be don to one machine, so no overtaking while im away. :D

lol did u overclock ur computer...

ur cpu is probably not stable at those speeds :01:

dowload Prime95 and test to see if the cpu is ok ;)

another quote:



but would this work on P4s?

I assume the windows client is optimized for Intel CPUs by default, and therefor Intel-based rigs don't need many switches.

Running Folding@Home has shown that AMD CPUs are awsome performers, but they need to be cared for, like any race-horse :rolleyes:

Folders on AMD CPUs have to find out which switches work best for them.
When you do want optimum performance you need a very stable machine with good cooling.
When you don't want optimum performance, you could fold without using a switch at all.

But, if you can't accept Lamsey outranking you ( like I can't ), you'll need the switches or a whole lot more machines. :01:

Fold on ! :)
 
1. What is FAH?
FAH is a distributed computing project, the purpose of which is to learn how proteins fold and misfold. By breaking down the process by which proteins are created we can find out what causes them to miscreate or misfold. The hope is that this will lead to future research that can help scientists come up with better treatments/cures for many of todays common ailments. But the most important part of the project is putting together an effective model of how to fold and unfold proteins with supercomputer power.
