My secondary pc is a dual p3 1000mhz. How can i run two instances on that pc so i can take andvantage on both cpu. Also my primary pc is a core 2 duo so i want to do it also on that.

Edit: I used to fold for a diff team. Is there a way i can transfer my folding points to my current???

    What operating systems are the machines using? Your points will continue to accrue under your user name (you won't lose points) but Stanford will note how many points you've folded for each team.

    Drasnor is correct... You can run two instances of F@H. A PIII will take a while but every point brings us closer to cures. :thumbsup:

    Its better to install the SMP client on that c2d... will get you much more PPD than 2 clients.

    Right, but for the dualie P3, use two F@H clients, one for each physical CPU.
