My Points Per Day seem to have gone to crud lately, making me wonder if I have the folding optimized. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. This post will only concentrate on my borgs I have total control over, I do have a couple of borgs that may work or not. Offsite.

My main PC is a dual core 2.3Ghz AMD rig with 2Gb RAM, folding uninterupted for at least 18 hours a day. It has 2 console clients loaded, and I enabled large WU's, and such. Avg PPD on this one is 76.6 on core 1, and 100.7 on core 2. Seems a bit low. VERY low...

Dell Inspiron 600M laptop. 1.5Ghz CPU, 1Gb RAM, folding well let's say 23.5 hours a day using the console client 100.5 PPd.

Next up are the socket A's. One is a Barton 2500 XP, and the other is a Barton 2600 XPM. Both have the same mobo, Abit NFS-7, both have 1Gig ram, and are running the console 24/7 hours a day. They are getting 109.9 and 128.6 PPD.

Something seems amis. I looked at some things on event viewer, and I may have a problem with the main rig and a version of SMP folding I tried a while back. It is not in Remove programs, may just have to kill all folding on this one, then reinstall. Any ideas on getting more PPD out of these 4 'puters? Just seems like 10.3GHz of CPU power should be cranking out more points.

I used fahmon for points info.

Thanks for any ideas.
