If you installed the PR console, then the team # should already be set for you.
As for the icon, post here: http://forums.pcapex.com/showthread.php?t=28255
and lokies_mom will get you hooked up

Thanks for folding, man.

ok so i downloaded the folding thing and i dont think its doing anything---its up in a cmd window----but how do i tell if its doing anything?

aaronrkelly · 09-March-05, 11:42 PM

After you go thru the setup and answer the questions it will start - after a few minutes close the command window and restart the PC. Then press CTRL-ALT-DEL and see if FAH_CORE or similiar is using all available CPU cycles. If it is then its working.

LwrS10 · 09-March-05, 11:45 PM

so how do i turn it off if i want to play games and stuff? does this thig take up all avalible resorces when its running?

aaronrkelly · 09-March-05, 11:53 PM

When its running it will use ALL the processing power that is available to it - if you fire up a game it will give the game all the processor usage it wants and then will take whats left. Most people never notice the difference - I dont. I think I read somewhere it affects benchmarks and such my no more than 2% in most cases - this will lead to NO real world performance loss on most PCs. I never turn mine off and have never felt it hampered performance.

Up and folding! That console version is slick! And TrayIt! is way handy too!! Ive started rightclicking my windows now instead of just minimizing them

droeblek9 · 12-March-05, 02:26 AM

Glad to have you folding, man

Crazy_J · 12-March-05, 10:05 PM

I have good news for you all. It is estimated at 1 a.m. March 14, we will move past Team MacNN. This means the PR folding team will be ranked #41. Good work guys and keep on folding.

aaronrkelly · 05-April-05, 08:49 AM

I have now officially taken position amongst the TOP 10!!! GO ME.....

I would like to thank my wife for not b!tching about 3 PCs running 24/7 and my boss for letting my fold on work PCs and all the little people that made this possible.....

RexBeans Explosion · 05-April-05, 09:01 AM

A big congrats to you arron.

Now if only I could get my act together.

hawklen · 05-April-05, 09:32 AM

Nice! I have only two linux computers running f@h

AMD AthlongXP 2000+ (2ghz) and a celeron 1.7ghz. F@h runs faster on linux

Crazy_J · 13-April-05, 05:56 AM

If you want to know how many points your WU is worth you need to check a couple of things. Your F@H client or log file will tell you which WU it is working on. For example, mine is working on p1277_proj127......

In the project name I will use the number 1277. Next, I will go to Folding at Home's Project page and click on 1271-1282 hyperlink.

This hyplink will display info for each project in its range and list points accordingly. It says project 1277-78 is worth 59 points and my cpu has 13 days to complete the WU.

I hope his will help you guys understand the WU Point system better.

Edit:
Here is an excellent summary of all the WUs.

aaronrkelly · 23-April-05, 03:16 PM

Just got hosed outta 8th by percman - oh well I will get it back and 7th when Sportability and Potatoe Joe fall in the next 21 days......mu ha ha ha ha

Crazy_J · 25-April-05, 01:35 AM

We need more PR folding rigs. There are only 4 teams above us that we have a lower 24hr point average. The good news is we will move up one more spot in 11 more days.

percman24601 · 25-April-05, 02:17 AM

I'm doin all I can but I only have 43 machines I can fold on.

percman24601 · 01-May-05, 01:26 AM

Damn, you gotta love those 6,600 point days

But I am pissed that I was 64 points short of a 100,000 point month. May does have 31 days though
