Folding Forum

pause-on-start allows for the machine to start and not fold so for when maintenance is required or other tasks will be performed, make the folding activity require a positive initiation. It's annoying having to hover over the start tray looking for the icon to appear to right-click and hit pause. It...

Deleting the old one has solved the viewing issues but has lost the pause-on-start. What's the best way to re-initiate that?

I deleted the config.xml and it is now working. An upgrade install should either upgrade existing config files or replace them. Not checking for a suitable configuration seems like a missed opportunity.

see above, yes, there is an "allow" section.

What browser?
Brave needs shields down.

So Windows 11, local client is running, browser screen shows no machines. I do not know where to start to see why this is happening. config.xml is identical to v7 config. the passkey is identical to the same passkey I have used for ever. If I may say, the web page about v8 is very blase about how si...

yes, horrendous

4070S hitting 12m ppd on stock settings and Windows10. Massive improvement over 4070 for the same money.

I tried Heaven (ancient) which seemed to work. Tried to setup Timespy but I hate Steam with an overriding passion. I tried Furmark and the computer instantly crashed. On restart the card was no longer present in Device Manager. Thankfully I have a cpu with an IGP so am working off that until I get a...

if it's any use to you, testing my gpu has caused it to fail completely. I think it has been failing for a few days and is now gone entirely.

getting a Windows DPC Watchdog Violation. If I have the logs open at the moment of failure it's showing as a CUDA error before it freezes. No changes on my end. Computer is 100% stable if folding is paused. no overclock. single watercooled 1070. no cpu folding.

haven't updated my driver and I'm getting identical behaviour as you describe.

Your 4070 alone should be getting more than the 3.5m you get with win11.

Seems there may have been two manufacturers of the NVidia-supplied adaptor. One of these is apparently linked to the failures, no way to tell which one has been supplied so far.
