Re: Completely new to F@H, several basic questions.

Well, by tweaking I mostly mean moving the slider about and seeing how the temperature/fans react. Either way, I'm keeping it running for now, all seems to be good. A couple final questions: What do I do if I need to shutdown or restart my computer and can I keep folding if my internet connection di...

Re: Completely new to F@H, several basic questions.

Post the log and we'll comment. (See the signature of my first post.) I'm not sure how much use this will actually be considering all the tweaking I've been doing to figure out what setting to run it on. I see one "error" line, though. *********************** Log Started 2014-07-15T19:59:...

Re: Completely new to F@H, several basic questions.

Thanks again, bruce. I am going to settle on the V7 client, because I don't like having an extra browser tab open, and because my computer is on almost all the time as it is.

Re: Completely new to F@H, several basic questions.

Hello and welcome, tlm! Are you currently using the Chrome app or the downloadable client? If the latter, do you have slots for both the CPU and GPU? To find out which preset with which you're comfortable, one suggestion would be to set up a temperature monitoring program. RealTemp has a nice inter...

Completely new to F@H, several basic questions.

Hello everyone. First of all, I'd like to say a huge thank you to the team for a project like this. And now, to the question at hand, I have no idea how to set this thing up for my hardware properly. I am running it on a laptop (Lenovo G580), the specs are: CPU: Intel Core i5-3320M, Ivy Bridge @ 2.6...
