    ...F@H it scans the integrity of the work already completed before it recommences Folding. For a minute or so it will show your progress at "0".

    Great to have you on The Team!

    Which Duron core do you have and were you able to do the mod provided by BDR?

    Cool to have you folding! :thumbsup:

    BTW
    BDR,

    That was a great link to a cool trick! :respect:

    I can't take the credit. I just found it somewhere else when I was checking out my Duron's folding ability.

    Unfortunately, mine is a Spitfire and it wouldn't work for me.

    I haven't tried it yet but I will tomorrow. I'm running a 1.4GHz Athlon.

    bothered.

    dell... I have two of them folding

    Yup, I've got two of 'em work also, both folding.

    Geeky1, the newer Optiplexes are actually cooled very nicely - very good engineering. They have a 92mm, low RPM fan integral to a duct that sits directly over the CPU heatsink.

    My two Optiplexes (1.6 P4) are VERY slow, but 100% reliable on Win2K SP3.

    The optiplexes maybe, but their extreme gaming system things aren't. They've got a passive heatpipe cooler and a ducted case fan to cool it, and obviously that wasn't enough, because the one maximumpc has tested overheated repeatedly.

    The school I go to switched some comps. to 1.6GHz P4/512MB PC133 OptiPlexes this summer, and you're right Leo- they're S-L-O-W A-S H-E-L-L.

    You now have 1 less S-L-O-W A-S H-E-L-L dell folding for the team.



    geeky1, what are you folding on?

    You're not disbanding your dell because Geeky was ribbing them are you? If you do a little checking you'll see that geeky can go a little far from time to time but he means no harm so please don't let it bother you BDR. ;):)

    A folding machine is a Dell, a Gateway, a Compaq, an IBM as well as a custom built PC, if it can run the program, it definitely qualifies to do so. :)

    LOL... I can (and do) go off the deep end on occasion. However, I have found that these OptiPlexes the school has are unbearably slow. Maybe it's because everything is networked (remote profiles, remote storage, etc.) but they're slow to the point of driving me nuts when I have to use them. And I only use them for my C programming class...

    What do I fold on? Well, right now:

    SVHFH:
    5x AMD Athlon XP 1800+
    1x P3-650
    1x P3-600
    1x Celeron 500

    Under my S/N:

    More-or-less all the time:
    1.3GHz Celeron (which is being replaced by 2 1.4GHz P3-S CPUs when they come down to ~$100 each)

    Whenever I can:
    2.3GHz 1800+
    2x 1.875GHz 2500s (will be 2.25GHz when I get around to modding them...)
    2.4GHz P4

    I have my computers in my room, and so they all get turned off at night (except the celeron print server). Also, since I can't sleep unless my room is <72*F (and it takes me forever to go to sleep if it's over 68*F) during the summer, I fold only on the Celeron and/or the P4. Now that it's cooling down, I'll start up the 1800 system, followed by the dual 2500 system (after I get the BIOS ROM replaced)

    I suppose I COULD do something with the 3 unused AXP's and 4 unused Socket A boards I have sitting around, but I don't have the room for 3 more comps ATM...

    I'll be folding under Angel_Heather for awhile.

    Bothered mate, waytogo! I actually thought you already folded, but I guess I was wrong...

    ..You know what's great now though, I have a wingman for folding in Manchester. Finally I am no longer alone.

    :):D;):p:thumbsup:

    I used to fold at Icrontic for a while but thought it slowed my PC down. It seems to be doing that now, or is it just my imagination?
    I tried BDRs tweak, no go. The option to turn on sse is grayed out.
    We'll see how things go, Got the kids PC folding as well.

    bothered.

    If you're running the console client, I've never seen slowdown.

    Running the "Graphical Newb" client I always get trouble : )
