Couple of questions

Post by LB89IT »

Hi,
first of all sorry for my english, i hope you'll understand what i'm asking...
1) When i go press Web Control on the computer it open the browser page but it refresh without stopping (is not a big deal i can use the advanced one but at the beginning it worked)

2)
Is there a possibility to temporarily disable the GPU?
I noticed that when I leave the PC and come back after a while even if I put the power to a minimum the card works the same ...

Thanks for your attention:)

I'm happy to work with people with limited English and will ask if I don't understand.

1) As far as I know, this is a specific incompatibility of Chrome with WebControl; It used to work with Google's Chrome browser but they dropped support and then changed something that caused the problem you're experienced. Use a different browser or use the Advanced Control application.

2) Using the Advanced Control App, you can Pause any (or all) slot(s). The general purpose PAUSE function will suspend all processing. If you happen to fold with both the GPU and the CPU, you can right-click one slot (under "FOLDING SLOTS") and PAUSE just that part of FAH's activity. If you're going to be paused for a long time compared to the time it takes to finish the current WU, you can also use FINISH which will continue processing the active WU until it reaches 100%, upload the results, and then perform the PAUSE function. No new WU will be assigned until you manually choose FOLD (i.e.- UnPause).
