After reading all this and seeing that people do want to help, so what the hell. I want to help too.
I went to the FAQ sapasion made, download the client and beta (I'm using an amd chip). I added to both shortcuts -advmethods and
-forceasm and filled the 3 windows, just like sapasion put.
I let FAH4.00 access to the internet (using Zonelarm), now what?
ADD: my cpu usage is 96-100 %
Well, using beta 4.0 instead of 3.25, you are suppose to use forceSSE instead of forceasm, other then that I believe it is suppose to download a WU and start working.Quote:

Work Unit. F@H downloads the data to be processed in a Work Unit, processes it, and transmits the data back to 'mission control'.Quote:

Freaks like Thermo and Kaotik have done over 100 WU's in the last few weeks (steroids or THG, I suspect...), whereas slackers like my good self have barely done 20...
Some WU's are larger and have more complicated data, while others just wizz by. :)
WU=Work Unit. Edit: Thanks, Mojo you explained it better then I could.Quote:

I thought you did it quite succinctly ;)
I do have couple old systems laying around, but they aren't really fast enough - P200MMX, couple P133's.Quote:

Next best thing to a stack would be a few SFF systems. Biostar 200N should be here soon.
If you're looking for a cheap upgrade I won a MSI K7T Turbo and XP1800+ at ubid for $45 (including ground shipping). I've seen auctions for that combo every couple days. Should get it tomm so I can see if it's a Pally or TBred.
Also Newegg has Shuttle's AN35N-Ultra for $48 after MIR. :)
thanks for the answers lonewolfroger and Mojo
WOO HOO!!! My life is now complete!! :cool: :) :DQuote:

Have we figured out if F@H prefers low latency/ higher FSB like SETI, or raw CPU speed??
Right now I'm running my 2500+ @ 2.21G (211x10.5), 1.75V; 2x256MB Buffalo Tech PC3700 11-3-3-2, 2.7V. Tried 2.32G (211x22), 1.775V but it wasn't stable. Can't go much higher unless I run at CAS 3, tried 215 11-3-3-2.5 and no luck even at 2.8V.
When I had my 2100+ I ran it at 2.3G (200x11.5), same RAM 6-2-2-2 @ 2.7V.
Welcome, fellow Crusader, now all you have to do is click on the OC crusaders link in my sig and put that link in your sig, and you are set. AS far as your other question, I looks like raw cpu power, more then anything else.Quote:

Ok, its late, I apologize if I'm missing the obvious -- What's a KVM? VNC? Do you need individual hard drives/power supplies for each one or is there some way to jury rig it?Quote:

So here’s what you do, hit the Goodwill and such, ask around the neighborhood and find all the old PC’s you can lay your hands on. Put a free VNC on em and set them to auto boot. Trim the OS to the bone and pull every card and drive not needed for folding. Put the folding client on, plug em in and stackem up. String them to a hub with Cat 5 and set up a little network. ICS will work if it’s less than 10 (8 is more of a real world max). If you have more than 10, you will need something from a third party, there are lots of free network clients out there. Then turn them on and let them fold. When you need to drive them you just VNC in and do what needs to be done. Three old P II’s would give you 150 points a week, easy. 10 junk’rs would give you 500 points.

it's a little hardware thingie where you connected multiple computers to 1 monitor, 1 keyboard and 1 mouse. You can switch from one computer to another

Like the other poster said.. A KVM is a piece of hardware where you can connect 1 keyboard/mouse and monitor to numerous towers...Quote:

VNC is a remote desktop type application.. It is a free piece of software that allows you to connect to each machine via IP.. Like remote desktop :)
