Maybe next year Duck!

Sportbilly · 18-January-03, 02:53 PM

F@H down...

Their forum pages indicate no work being handed out due to network problems at Stanford. Some mighty pissed folks on the forum right now.

I guess some people put a lot of money into this 'charity' folding work and get mad when their comps have to sit idle for a weekend...

I don't get it myself, I'll just wait till they get it worked out

Sporty... (No I don't want a cookie lol)

BigAkita · 18-January-03, 04:15 PM

That happens quite a bit. I like it when their servers won't accept completed work units but still hands out work. When they start accepting work we get some awesome numbers! Almost 800 points one time in a 6 hour period.

BigAkita · 19-January-03, 07:55 PM

WooHoo! Russia fell! Dudes, we took them out. Of course our defense budget was higher and we outspent them, but WooHoo! I would love to spank Little White Dog. That sounds strange, doesn't it. Let's keep going, pimps. I got my main rig back up and rocking, I swear it completes more WU's than any 4 of my Intel rigs.

Sportbilly · 19-January-03, 08:56 PM

I just completed a new folding rig last week, Celeron 900@1.2, it outfolds my Dell p.o.s 2.0G P4, That tell ya anything? Just found out that Dell actually put a Northie in this thing though, so I can see a mobo swap in my future...

Keep up the good work fellas, we're only gaining on the White Dog by a couple hundred points a week, so even the little rigs count now... (Like my K-6/2 500 Laptop LOL)

Sport...

me_john85 · 20-January-03, 04:31 PM

i just started folding yesterday but i got one done

BigAkita · 20-January-03, 05:05 PM

I can't believe Russia ramped up production and passed us by after we just took them. It looks like they won't hold up very much longer, we should pass them again this evening.

biohazardpc · 20-January-03, 05:25 PM

having a problem with f@h. Every time I put ti on display I get an error and have to shut everything down. Should I just reinsatall?

arj256 · 20-January-03, 05:40 PM

I have Managed to get a few mates folding for Pimp Rig..
So thats 2 Athlon 1gigs helping us out.

BigAkita · 20-January-03, 05:49 PM

Great job arj, we may still get LittleWhiteDog.

Bio, I had that problem on one XP system, never did figure out what caused it. I uninstalled, reinstalled, and it still crashed. I ended up just using console mode and it worked fine.

BTW, I have come to prefer console mode better than the graphical mode.

BZA · 20-January-03, 05:54 PM

can you change to console mode if you are already running the graphical mode? or is it a fresh download?

Also, if you are running one of the new P4 systems with hyperthreading (the thing that tricks the system into thinking you have 2 CPU's) can you run 2 copies of folding at the same time? Double the WU's double the fun!

BZA · 20-January-03, 05:55 PM

Also, somebody posted in here some place about running Folding on a system comprised of nothing more than Mobo, CPU, RAM, video card, some Linux trick thing?

any details on that?

MeMyth · 20-January-03, 06:45 PM

Was going to try running F@H here at work and about 17/200 I looked at the MBM5 and my temp was at 60C...

NoSlak · 20-January-03, 07:04 PM

My points are going down , my AMD 2100 has no internet so its not crunching, and my 2200 will be losing DSL anyday now, so unless my modem gets here soon I'll be dropin back.

DuckWarrior · 20-January-03, 07:15 PM

oops, I pulled it off cause my system kept crashing and I wanted to pull all bu the essentials off. I forgot to turn it back on.
there. its on again.

BigAkita · 20-January-03, 07:32 PM

BZA, the HT Pentiums can run two folding sessions no problem, they just need to be located in two different directories.

You can switch to console mode, just drop it into the F@H directory you are currently using. It will automatically pick up the workload. Just make sure you turn off the graphics mode.

I think it was Insomniac that had a bare folding box put together, you may want to ask him about the Linux thing.

MeMyth, it definitely works out your CPU when you are folding. Try reducing your CPU usage to 50% and see if temps are better.

Ya BZA, its a program called Overfoldix It allows you to run it with a minumum of a CPU RAM and Mobo (and a CD Rom, or something else to boot it off of , just for the boot though you can revmove it after words)

You can download it, but it requires a bit of Linux programing to get it under You name and team pimprig (it defaults to someone else) I customized one for Insomniac, let me know if you want me to do the same for you

TiDude · 20-January-03, 10:28 PM

I apologise, I thought Duck was so sexy and I wanted him so bad that I lashed out when he said no to me.
He likes women and would never like guys but I know that if he gives me a chance I can change his mind. I just love him sooo much!!!!!
