I've used that saying for a long time

See above, 27 minutes for me. Now you said 12 minutes (on your C2D?), that doesn't feel so bad since mine is an older CPU

Edit: I gotta say this fan is doing my head in though at max even if the temp is stable @ 54C (probably that's a few degrees more than what it really is since Everest is slightly off). Might take it down a notch.

yes i saw that. C2D's run about twice as fast from what i'm observing.

27x 100% = 2700 mins / 60 = 45 hours ~ 2 days.
Pretty fast for a Pentium D.

I believe due date for SMP Projects is 4 days.

off topic kinda
Did you ever get your internet upgrade you were talking about?

Thankyou Zevi, now I feel much better

However...my PC's only on ~12 hours a day...so that might muck things up :S (or I might just scrape in by the skin of my teeth LOL)

@rolling - not yet

Edit: whew...turned the fan down by 20%, not so loud now

...temps only up by 2C.

It started where I left off when I logged back into Windows as well

**Arachne** · 15-06-2007

Well, I've backed up the folder each time I've shut down the client (about 5 times), but (fingers crossed) I haven;t needed it yet, it's always picked up where it left off

I don't think you need to worry.

This is what I was talking about when backing up the folders. I am overclocked but trying to lower my CPU voltage. If I go to low I get the error below which just happened.

So now I can copy the files from the backed up folder and continue instead of losing the work already done. The only time I have seen this is an unstable overclock. Which I do quite often.

Ouch! Thank God for backups

My PC just locked up (installed a new media player which froze it completely), and I had to hit the reset button.

I was pleasantly surprised to find, yet again, it started where I left off

Give me break zevia, 6092 points in one day.

Come on admit it you tapped into some PC's at work didn't you?

I have 3 C2Ds plus Pentium D 2.66Ghz running either FAH or WCG, so total 4 PCs.

This morning I checked my stats 7615 points in a day equal to 5 PCs running SMPs!

So thanks to whoever sent me their points, it's all for the team and good cause.

Need a new home for a couple?

Nice! And I can take a good guess at who that was

It is for a good cause, and it's great that we can have fun doing it

**Arachne** · 17-06-2007

Just sent in my first SMP WU

...no problems completing it on time, even though I shut down at night for the most part

Starting on 2605 now

It's real nice not to have to worry if it will save work and get more work

I'm very happy with my setup now

Yeah you seem to have things running peachy now

Oh and Womble got another WU in

...maybe he saw my challenge coming

Oh and you're not that far behind

- with your machine you'll catch me up in days
