i think i've sorted out stuff with most of me boxes so they should be returning to active processing as they reboot....

I like the way if you look at Mutant_Fruit's future prediction graph, I'm the trend setter!

Yes, you should

And i think i give up. My two processors can't compete with Daragh's 8 processors.

OK I'm getting pi$$ed off now. I've had three wu fail at the end of processing with this error

windows/linux client?
are you sure there is free space on the disk/FAH client has premission to write there?

RonanH · 05-05-2005 08:57AM

Running Win98, so there are no permissions to worry about. I had one WU complete, a really long one, but since that I have had three fail at 100%... I'm considering reinstalling it but I don't know if that'd help or not...

SickBoy · 05-05-2005 09:01AM

RonanH, are you overclocking?

RonanH · 05-05-2005 09:04AM

HeHe... wish I could, have a ****ty PIII 833Mhz, work pc. I even shut everything else down last night to make sure that F@H was the only thing running on the pc, still bombed out on me.

Ronan

mukki · 06-05-2005 12:49PM

added 10 pcs today

my 24 hour average was 278

my points today is 849

need to find more pcs

JackieChan · 06-05-2005 01:43PM

My display is showing 156 days to complete a work unit!!!Has anyone had it take this long to complete one? Have a look at the attachment!

JackieChan · 06-05-2005 02:35PM

No worries, I gave the PC a kick and its now saying 3days to finish...not great but far better!

neGev · 06-05-2005 07:23PM

Hey JackieChan, unless you can't bear to part with your 3D images, you should probably try using the text-only console version

RonanH, try deleting your 'work' folder, your 'queue.dat', 'unitinfo.txt' as well as your core (something like FahCore_78.exe). Start the client again and it will download a new core and a new work unit.
After a quick google, it seems as though running Norton firewall with F@H might cause a few issues, especially when Norton Liveupdate is running.

109 lmao , where da hell u getting that level of resources dude?

deRanged · 16-05-2005 12:50PM

109? I'm only getting warmed up.

There's about another 20 cpus to report in yet. I'm burning in a new os/kernel on my cluster and this is a handy way to test them out. I'm also testing the air con (seriously).

Kali · 16-05-2005 01:07PM

hmm ive about 7 machines going here.. pity they're all crap

Catching ianoc just isn't going to happen though.

July 12th i think is the forecast date for ye to overtake me, i'll be going back up to 40 odd cpu's soonish, but at 130cpu's u'll easily manage to overtake me

deRanged · 16-05-2005 04:01PM

I don't think I'll be able to use them all for folding for long enough to take and hold the top spot. Second is good enough for me.

neGev · 16-05-2005 07:27PM

Don't listen to his fables about testing out kernels or aircon systems, what he really does is mug unsuspecting CPU's that witlessly wander down dark alleys at night.

BugBlaster · 18-05-2005 08:59PM

my pcs for some unknown setting have gone on a go slow.... from 1800 points per week to 400 so the older machine are goin into retirement again once they finish whatever workunit they are getting on with. #

my goal was to pass out that MS team n thanks to ye lads thats well done now.

I will continue to contribute but I dont see the reason in floggin half dead pcs for weeks only to get a few units from them

AWaaay da team Boi

RonanH · 09-06-2005 12:46PM

Gone quiet on this thread... just in case you didn't know, the console version of the client v5.02 which is only stated to work on NT/2000/XP works really well on Win98. For me it is much more stable than the version 4 client. Give it a go if you're using the earlier client on '98.

Ronan

Might be able to set it up on a few more pcs in the next couple of days too

deRanged · 10-06-2005 08:41AM

I had to stop the client on 100 cpus the other day. I'm down to about 20 now and I was making great progress!

neGev · 20-08-2005 12:15PM

Just a little personal update - some bar-steward at work seems to have blocked off the connection to the F@H servers and for the moment, I've no net connection for my other comp, so I'm dead in the water...

BugBlaster · 27-08-2005 04:56PM

yeah seems like you can download some TYPES of units and they will report back the result.... like the tinker proggie..

DonkeyStyle \o/ · 27-08-2005 08:08PM

Meh, still trudging away here on my single cpu.
That gpu client sounds sweet though, if they ever release it that is. (that thread has gone very quiet on the fah-community forum.)
Maybe it'd be a chance for people with decent gfx cards to catch up on the sys admins that have 500 old pentiums folding for them

folding at home!
