So you got the same dilemma?

I've been folding for 3 days for WCG and my FAH WU keeps comming ...

Ooh, not so many now

I've been messing with linux on all the PC's

Lappy has linux (mostly) - until i figure out this damn wireless card

Servers on Linux and until I get the file-sharing working right ... bleh

And my main (dual core) beast is used for about 5 minutes every day

Well i had enough fun with this client so i'll be giving all my cpu time to WCG Team. Sorry guys. I give up. I have to be able to shut down when needed and not have to mess with this screwy client. Boinc ( i like calling it Bionic

) runs so much better and you can adjust cpu usage to what you want to.

Awww, sorry to see you go!

**zevia** · 13-06-2007

Yeah, sorry about that rolling. You can see Arachne now actually (in your radar).

you could also run a couple of standard clients along side boinc

that works out pretty good for me when I'm not SMPing

the only real downside is ram usage can get kinda high when there are 3 or 4 big WUs, I've seen as high as 1gb on my rig

IIRC I mentioned the standard client to rolling (you mean the regular Windows GUI one, right?), and he said there's a problem with it and his graphics card.

Unless you mean the console client, that might work

**jwill427** · 13-06-2007

yep, I meant the console

with default settings on FAH and Boinc each WU will get 25% CPU time (half a core each) although windows will occasionally muck up on affinity and one WU will get 50% and the other 3 will get ~17% but as soon as one finishes it will re-balance to 25% each

with that setup I never even got close to missing a deadline with my fx60 running 8-10hrs a day

*Bob* · 13-06-2007

Thanks for the in put. It's like playing a slot machine when i start it up

sometimes i win sometimes i loose.

I'll try to keep running it but i will loose my work if i restart it 9 times out of 10.

**Arachne** · 13-06-2007

I say again that's really weird. We're all using different clients and no-one's had that much bad luck

*Bob* · 13-06-2007

I even tried running at default stock speeds and it still does the same thing. So it's not an overclocking issue. The 5.04 client? won't run on this machine as the vid card is not compatible.

the 5.04 "no nonsence" text console will run on anything with xp/vista, I've never lost work with it either...its the 5.91 GPU client that you need a video card for

ok it's been awhile so your probably right. 5.04 will not give the big points though?
