Folding Forum

I have an old Pent 4/HT 3.2 GHz that I have kept in service, not because of the CPU (which will get around 150 ppd running Uniprocessor WUs), but because I have been able to run a highly overclocked non-cooled GT430 GPU in one of its PCI non-Express slots. This gives me consistently about 6000 ppd ...

Another thought, is there any place worth donating this computer to?

No, there's no pci-e slots.

Thanks for validating my thought that it might be a high point to power usage situation.

My dad finally gave in and got himself an up-to-date laptop to replace his 9 yr old Dell desktop with a Pentium 4 3.0 ghz.

Is this even worth considering for folding?

Thanks!

Well actually, v6 is set at 100% but using 50% of each core, which is why I liked this setup.

Last time I tried v7 I didn't have this functionality available. Like for 2 cores, if at 50%, it would max out one and leave the other idle.

Ok, thanks for all of the help.

At least we took care of the core 17 issue.

I tried v7 last year and it appeared to consume more resources than v6.34.

I've just upgraded memory and SSD recently so prob give it another shot.

OK, did what you said (deleted work folder, queue.dat and unitinfo.dat) and changed id to 2. Now no work?

I've been folding for over 18 months now with minimal problems. Running 6.34 SMP on an Pentium Dual Core T4300 @ 2.10GHz. Went to check on progress as I normally do and noticed that it's stuck on trying to download FahCore.17.exe. [16:19:17] [16:19:18] Loaded queue successfully. [16:19:18] [16:19:18...
