Well I just got back from vacation now.....plugged in the two comps I had with me and turned in their WU's. So I'm back up to five comps again. I got a POS 333 celeron in on it also...LOL. It will take it 4 days to complete 1 WU. But hey, as long as it helps out.......

WTF is up with the points.....ATM bigakita has 12 WUs turned in and only 38.36 points. I also have 12 WUs turned in but have 56.31 points. What am I doing different to get more points? How does that work?

I just installed and let it run just like Scapegoat said....thats all.

I was thinking something like this would happen....well we could always switch back to 11115 if SNY can't get it....Not a big deal.....yet. He needs to find it quick so we won't waste any more WUs.

Did I miss something here? Why would we want to change to 11115 if everyone is knocking out WU's on 596? Anyway, I hope not, I'm gonna do some of the computers at work today *Mission Impossible music plays* and I'm putting 596 on them I'm planning on catching Sny, OMFG and BigA and winning the brand new car! *just kidding*, but I do plan on catching up

I must warn everyone that if we do have to switch to another number that I will take the lead and nobody will catch me.....muahahahaha!

OMFG: Their are 'bout 200 diffrent project, each one takes diffrent amounts of time. And the longer it takes the more points it is worth. Hence why Bigakita has more WU but less points, you just got the biger projects.

Quote: We benchmark each unit such that a 400 MHZ Pentium III can finish a work unit worth 1.0 credits in 1 day. Shorter and longer units are credited appropriately.

Duck: Bigakita has already contacted Vijay(admin for Folding@home) He couldnt give him the password because he didnt have any proof of who he was. But he was was perfectly willing to have everything setup and he said he would add our team banner(once we get one) to the folding@home site(which would be the only reason we need the password in the first place, so its not that important). I will email him again to see if we can transfer over points for 11115->596.

Potato-> keep knockin' them out dude!!

Everyone: Congrats to everyone who is working! We have just broken the Top 1000 mark! And are currently ranked 983!! One hell of an accomplishment for only 1 week!

We are now currently at 796!!!

Wooooohooo!!!!!
When the site updates again we will creep up the scale even more! Keep em coming pimps!

It is going to be [H]ard to catch [H]....I don't think it is possible ATM though LOL......but we can still dream for now!

I'm kind of stationary in my progress right now, 3 of my POS machines are crunching something that takes 1200 passes to complete, they have been on them for days now. But I imagine that when they finish those up, there will be a significant jump in the points. OMFG, I'll catch you yet.

I am running folding on my laptop now too. As soon as I can dig up a working modem, I'll dowmload it to my kids PC.

I think I can scrap up enpough spare parts to dedicate a machine to fold as well. Do you think it will run on a 75mhz pentium 64MB ram with windows 95?

It should run fine Zero, though i wouldnt recommend it, All of the projects have a timeout date, meaning if they are not returned finished within a certain amount of time, they will not count.

Where can I find info on the time out date. I have enough pieces to actually put together 2 machines. Both are 75mhz and will be dedicated Folding boxes. Nothing else. Would it really take that long to compute the work units?

the project you computer gets is set randomly, The info on each project is HERE(PROJECTS) It also lists the timout date for each one.

What you may what to do for your 75mhz machine is set it to accept Genome@home Projects instead of protien folding, its the same program, Just that these projects are helping decode the human genome. These are also credidted to the team, but most do not have a timeout date\

For those of you who have multiple comp's or just want more info on what the Folding@home Program is doing, Here as a good 3rd party program

Electron Microscope

This small little program allow you to see what time your WU started, est time it will finish. Number of frame per WU, and your current point score. Best thing of all you can use it to moniter multiple computers in one program(given your computers are networked).


Single Computer


Mutliple Computers

Hellz ya man! That is just what I needed. I was getting tired of pacing between all rooms in my house to track the progress. I have it monitoring all 5 of my comps! It is sweeeeet. Easy as pie to configure too.....just had a few "are you sure this, are you sure that" windows pop up. Now I'm going to have to find another way to get my exercise...LOL. I have been pacing mad from room to room.

Great info, Scapegoat. That will save OMFG a lot of shoe leather. I know he has been running from computer to computer checking the status because he knows the big dog is biting at his heels.

Just wanted to keep you all posted on Team Pimprigs folding @ home stats.........a-hem. *cough*



Closing in!

I lost two WU's today too DW, I had "Network send" something or other. So I dumped the queue.dat file and they started another one. The one that I lost was 93% done the other had stopped at 7%

And I had a damn space in front of my name on one computer and that one is gonna be on PR's Team Stats page and never gain any more WU's

You know Joe, I wondered about that name. Regardless, you came through the pack pretty quick. Think I better watch my six.

( a quick off topic )

scapegoat..... how do you do those screen captures????

back on topic woo hoo i finished my second WU

SINasster, its alt-printscreen to copy the current open window, and just printscreen for the whole desktop. then paste into you favorite graphics program(photoshop, paint etc...)
