My 2GHz celery laptop has taken about 18 hours solid to get to 96/400.... But I now have a 800P3 running 24/7 as well - between the two something has to happen :)

Ummm.............Could be
I got one of the 2500's too, and it's on the slowest most worked system I have.
I love your avatar Saps!:p LotR rocks....i'm now at 1125/2500...this is going very slowly..:(
In the configure section you type your username and team number 34149, I believe. You might show up after completing a task, I'm not sure. The website is in the initial thread post and this thread is in saps sig. Someone correct me if I'm wrong on any of the above.Quote:
Does it have to be run 24/7, because I don`t leave my computer on 24/7. Edit to add should I use client or the screensaver. Also where do I go to join the team.
If it's anything like UD it will just operate whenever you are leaving your computer idle and that's it. You download the packet and then just leave it on offline, shut down whenever you want and complete the task incrementaly. Then you upload it and get a new task. Well, sorry guys, I signed up but I can't connect to the server, unopened port? filesharing? NetBIOS?, aol? juo1ned wrong? I don't know right now, I'll stick to my previous UD for the time being. Have fun guys.
Thanks GARRIN19, now all I need to know is which one to download the client or screensaver.
Get the client. It has less overhead. If you run an NT OS, then you can DL the command line version and run it as a service. But you need to be up on cmd configerations to set it up.
Thanks, I`m running XP Home Ed. I don`t know if it qualifies as a NT OS, it wouldn`t matter anyway, I don`t know diddly about command configerations.:)Quote:

I'd love to sign up, but I only check in to sharky's these days from work. Not connected at home any more. :(
I signed up today and will share half my CPU with Seti@Home since each application will take no more than 50% of my CPU. I guess with HT enabled, these programs will not us more than 50%.
is there a sharkys team for United Devices? if so i would love to join! can someone link me?
ahhh nevermind! i found it!
Nooooo. Now I'm torn between my own team and the Sharky's team. What do I do?
me too, i haven't joined yet but i'm sure i will, what's this UD think agent? i hope that's what i have
Why doesn't Microsoft do something of value, and build software like such into the Windows kernel. Think of the power. Every Windows based computer working together to solve complex math problems while only using a small amount of RAM and CPU power. Windows XP already takes up a shitload of RAM, I wouldn't mind having another 64MB or so dedicated to something usefull. Psh.
In fact, if every Windows based machine were running SETI in the background, I would venture a guess we would find ET in about a week. We would also find that ET is still running Windows 3.11 :p
Be part of something bigger than yourself and join the SFers. Nah seriously its all good in the endQuote:

Cannot wait for some of you guys to start showing up on our page
The team is moving up in the standings quite nicely. We will break the top 4000 today! And as more people begin to turn in units we should continue to progress at a good pace.
Nice picture on the team page, did you put that up Saps?
Well here it is 09:30 am in the east and we have broken into the top 4000 teams (3806).
Some totally un-scientific observations over a three day period.
AMD XP chips fold faster than similar P4 chips
The 638 series projects take forever but really bump your score when turned in.
AD Domain controllers never use more than 50% of the CPU for folding
DNS servers really suck for folding, but it does not seem to adversely affect resolution times.
Dual processor systems are the best (0 + 1) By setting the client to run on the 1 processor, 100% utilizations occurs 100% of the time. More or less.
Xeons are faster than higher rated XP chips
On almost identical systems, 2K advanced server seems to be much faster than NT server. Still need a little more data on this though.
well, i let my comp run a lot of the day, not at overnight, though, at 2.3ghz and i'm still on 1525/2500. The string is p683_tz2_NAT_EXP. I don't know if that's a lot of points, but it darn well should be with me crunching it for the past 2 or 3 days...:D
Yeah I wonder what other team that could be? :DQuote:

I was wondering why your WU production stopped after just 1! :p
Man, it's too bad I can't donate my team's 9600 points to the Sharky team. Anyway, I'll probably donate one rig to the new club.
Yes, it was a two minute cut and paste job with a little MSPaint for the Text. By all means if someone comes up with a better logo send it to me.Quote:

Thermo what's the difference between WU's which are 500 and those which are 2500. I'm already on my second 2500 but I must say it almost appears as if I didn't get the credit for my first 2500 WU. All my 500's seem to give around 30-35 score points. And yes that the rate we're growing we'll probably crack the top 2000 within a week. Of course my understanding is many folding team have folded ;)Quote:

I think the huge units are from the genome group; at least the projects are not listed with the protein folding projects. There is a selection in the properties box to specify protein folding only. I’m not sure how much credit you get from them, but they seem to take an eternity to complete.
Well I have had the Folding@home options selected since I installed it
