I can understand that mega-producers Thermo and Beast backed off for heat/electricity reasons, but I can't believe we don't have more 1-or-2-computer folders here...

I just joined the team....
I can get another 30 or so FAST computers folding as well, as long as F@H can be installed as a service (following those last few guides) when I don't have "administrator" access privledges....is this possible?
A) Glad to have you!Quote:

B) If you don't have administrator priveleges, it's probably for a reason. Ask the person that does admin those systems before even thinking about installing the Folding client.

Beast did not back off anything. He switched teams.

yeah, make sure you get privileges first from the admin. Any good admin would notice there's an extra service taking up 100% of the cycles...and when he/she finds it, it'll be deleted and you won't get a chance to explain, cuz you installed it without permission. So just ask him/her and do it the right way.:)Quote:

Damn, I didn't realize he threw in his full power with them...that hurts.Quote:

Don't get discouraged folks, we may have lost some heavy hitters but out of the top 100 teams , there are only 9 others with a higher % of active users processing.(42%) So we still have good interest... comparatively. What we need to make up the high power losses is a higher volume of participants.
Considering the progress we made when it was first started it's sad that we have slowed down so significantly. Just wish I had a few more computers to contribute but I currently have every computer I am able to folding for Sharky.
Yup, it's not even about getting more computers for each user. What we really need is more users. More users with only 1 or 2 computers each would help us alot more.
Everyone do their best to get some more people!!:)
Well, I'm trying to add a relative's P4 2.4ghz to our team, but I have a problem. When I try to install the program, I get "could not create folders for installation" errors. This is strange considering the PC is new and hasn't had a chance to get fouled up. This does not happen with any other apps I try to install; they all work fine.
Any ideas?
why did beast leave us?
Well, it looks like I will be adding a mobile 2400+ to the team. I have it at stock speeds until I can get a decent hsf. I'll work on that though. Hopefully I can have it running faster soon!!!
I lost one of my Folding machines recently too. PSU went out on me. Tho I'll be getting it back up today or tomorrow and am working on getting a third.
I have a "new" mobo (nForce1 with IGP) and an old HDD, now if someone would be nice enough to donate a cpu,case,and ram I could add another machine to the group.
Heh, seriously though why am I getting such strange WUs? The WU that had 10,000 points was done in a couple of hours. Weird.
Conversely, you could donate your mobo and HDD to me and I could cannibalize some parts from this or that machine and end up with a fourth. ;) :pQuote:

i have finally built my new comp and am now folding for the Sharky team :D
Only one question, I have a AMD 64 3000+ and am not sure about what flags I should put in the shortcut? :confused:
