Has kicked it up a notch and is now folding faster than we are!
all those little 800mhz boxes you guys have... MAKE EM FOLD!
I'll be adding a 3200+ and a 1.2 Tbird to the mix come this weenend. Maybe another 1800+ (all clients machines )

Ehh.. I'd set my Mother's 1ghz box to folding, but, Windows ME absolute hates F@H.. gives all sorts of BSODs and W32 errors when I try to run it.

No self respecting 1 Ghz box would ever be satisfied with WinME on it ... Mebbe get a real OS?Viralphrame wrote:Ehh..

Well, I'm still trying to fold, but my machine can't seem to connect to the servers. It'll get a little work unit, crank through it in a few hours, and then spend the next day or so "Waiting for core" and "Attempting to get work packet." Very odd. Very frustrating, too.
My computer is willing to work... it just can't find any.

I have exactly the same problem with my dually at work. I had it set to run 4 services (hyperthreading is enabled) and it would zip through the calcs and spend a day or so trying to upload the results.
I found a workaround as follows :
* I did a fresh install of the console version in a folder named .../Folding@Home/Console1 and configured it NOT to run as a service at startup.
* I made 3 more copies of the Console1 folder to get
- .../Folding@Home/Console2
- .../Folding@Home/Console3
- .../Folding@Home/Console4
* I configured each of the versions individually with unique cpu IDs.
* I created shortcuts to each
* I added the high perf switches to the shortcuts
* I put the shortcuts in my startup folder.
Now I log into my account and the processes startup ... I just hide the command windows they are running in.
I have no clue why I had to go through all of this but now it works ...

No Norton Firewall here ... but this box is behind the companys firewall.
