Folding Forum

There's a new release of Notfred's awesome folding suite...

News
9 February 09: Make Windows Share writeable. Support -smp 8 option. Remove unitinfo.txt from backup (can be giant). Update busybox, glibc and kernel.

I noticed I've gotten a few of these new 44xx WUs recently on my lone CPU client. I also have noticed that FAHMON 2.3.2 reports WU credit as unknown for several if not all of these... So I thought I'd search the forum to see if someone had determined what credit ws granted when the WU was returned. ...

Props to Baobab! WinAFC is an amazing tool. I recently came across WinAFC after fumbling around trying to find optimum settings on a newly upgraded box: Q6600 w/2 8800GS (swapped out P4 for quad) now running 2x Notfred VM appliances in addition to GPUs (vista 32bit). I concur with ExtraSalty, that i...

Many props Doc

In extreme cases, a window air conditioning unit may be the only practical solution, especially in extreme climates. I agree but I wouldn't consider Kansas to be an extreme climate, but rather an "extremes" climate. as in we get both extremes... I had cooling issues until I installed a wi...

Running SMP on a virtual linux machine (or the Notfred CD) through VMware takes care of that problem, doesn't it?

I'm impressed by the kindness and patience thats been displayed by almost everyone who's weighed in to try and help this joker. I suspect imzjustplayin's just trying to be as annoying as possible to see how much the Mods will tolerate before closing the thread or banning him/her. It isn't too hard t...

imzjustplayin: Dude. Stop it. You gotta be trolling, right? No one could be so thick. In case this is not a joke... Please heed the advice of the various sages who have offered you explanations. Read through the various links provided & fight the urge to continue with your replies. You've left t...

x3210 @ 2.8GHz. GeminII CPU cooler, Asus P5B Deluxe Wifi AP (965 chipset) mobo, 2GB Ram, Antec 900 case with a bunch of fans, Dedicated folder running SMP from Notfred CD. Problems with P3051 (R6,C26,G75)... 3 times in a row this one errored out approx 5 min after reaching 43% (Client-core communica...

There are quite a few benchmark numbers out of FahMon posted to compare ppd output on the thread listed below. I posted some benchmark data of same series WUs performance on same hardware at same settings (for a couple of different CPUs), & see a consistent 15-20% improvement when using the Notf...

et tu cabler?

No apology necessary. You folks no doubt answer the same questions over and over and over again... I can see how that could tend to put one on edge. Thanks for taking time to try & answer everyone's random questions every day. Please don't ruin my credit. I couldn't -- and wouldn't. I was just g...

I apologize if I came off the wrong way, but the forum does not have a thread addressing this subject. I prefer trying to find answers for myself to avoid looking like a complete noob but didn't find a good answer to this. Its all good and well that this was discussed this to death on the old forum,...

Thanks Don. I appreciate your comments although I respectfully disagree. There are really two separate issues here. I can accept that my PC config (i.e. overclocked RAM or CPU) may have caused this problem. I don't accept, however, that it's because of running two SMP clients. I can (and did) back o...

Greetings all. I got three consecutive EUEs on this one, though not always at the same spot. This machine is a Q6600 G0 running @ 3.2GHz on Abit IP35-V w/Hyper TX2 cpu cooler. Temps are < 60C on all cores. After the first EUE, I lowered from 3.3 to 3.2 GHz & bumped up Vcore a bit. Memory now @ 7...
