Re: Folding On A Laptop - Temperature and Clients

I believe the GPU has up to 1.4GB available to it maximum, however it does not have any dedicated memory, only shared out of the laptops 3GB of RAM.

Re: Folding On A Laptop - Temperature and Clients

Yeah, I have cut out a half inch thick rectangle of polycarbonate which I sit my laptop on when it is on bed covers or a sofa/couch to give the vent some clearance, which seems to work OK, however sitting a book on top of that rectangle, and my laptop on top of the book to give the vent a couple of ...

Ah Thanks! I had tried deleting the work folder and queue.dat file, however I didn't know I also had to change the Machine ID.

Thanks Very much.

Re: Folding On A Laptop - Temperature and Clients

I think something is going wrong here? I have just added the new client to FahMon to check it's progress, and they both show the same PRGC. (P11271 (R2, C213, G2)) I thought these were supposed to be different? I believe I followed the guide exactly, and when finished, I started up the first client,...

Re: Folding On A Laptop - Temperature and Clients

Thanks for the information everyone. I have now finished my first WU under this name, and have installed a second client which seems to be working fine! With the second client (and both cores working at 100%) my temp does not exceed 80°C when flat on a desk, and when raised by a few inches runs at a...

I would describe myself as a casual folder. As much as I would like to run dedicated folding machines,...
