Ahhh man, that's shiity Sol, Sorry to hear that. Hope ya can figure it out. any ideas what the problem is?


kkk I put together a post for a kind of intro to folding, could peeps take a look and tell me what needs fixing or adding. I don't have dual gpu's so if someone could write something up for that I'll add it. Should prolly add linix info too. I'm hoping if it's presented simple enough it may attract more participation. Please help

ya she wont take an OS after i rebuilt my rig the drive i use as my primary is on ide channel two instead of one....so seeing as i use caleselect its trying to deault to another drive...and my primary hdd is actually the slave on channel two because my burner is before it.....so im going to switch around the ribbons and see if that will fix it...this thing has caused soooo many headaches...iv already tried just going with it ...but upon every reboot i need to fixboot and fixmbr and it will only last for one start up. regardless of what i set my startup drie for in bios.

I have encounter similar probs in the past, for me changing the drive jumpers solved the prob.

im reinstalling so far so good well see soon enough its detecting the drive as ''C'' now so were doing good with any luck she'll be running within the hour and i can sriously crank WU's out

good show
what we need is an ubuntu live setup with the gpu client available.
that would make it sooo simple for people to fold. I read a bout that sort of setup with the cpu client but no support for linux gpu yet

It would be very cool to catch up and pass Microsoft in the standings! They're currently at 223, so we've got some work ahead of us! We'll get there!

Input Please

k I went through the post again and made some changes I plan to go through the faq pages for each client and put a description of each together. I'm thinking the install guides would be a fine addition as well More tommorow (hopefully)

what do ya think so far?
I'd like some input please
Like I said, the goal is to give lots of info in a way that is really easy to understand. I personally find the FAH website a bit of a difficult read and I think that may discourage some people

Actually, I think it's very informative and an easy read for noobs to folding. You are exactly right, the FAH website is hard to understand the way they word the instructions. Nice job man!! Thanks!

PM when you're done and I'll add it to the first post of the thread, it needs to be updated. See if you can add a FAQ section on frequently encountered problems and errors.

I stopped using the SMP because it kept hanging.

sure thing With the nature of the beta releases, do you think it would be better to link to the trouble shooting section of the FAH forum?

It's gonna be a work in progress for a few days atleast. I just added some more but the client links are too confusing so I'll go over it again

Is this PPD level good?

 

[p_o_s_pc]

I think it is good

 

[Skitzo]

yeah, that looks good p_o_s_pc

 

[p_o_s_pc]

yeah, that looks good p_o_s_pc

that isn't my score dude.

 

[SirKeldon]

Thank you to both of you =)

 

[p_o_s_pc]

my folding is going to stop for now. I got to take my HSF off to lap it i want to try to get 34c or lower under load. Im @36c right now

 

[Skitzo]

that isn't my score dude.

k i guess i missed something
lol .... k ... brain fart


how was the smp hanging? what was the error?

@SirKeldon good show, looks good

 

[SirKeldon]

I'm getting 41-43ºC/36-39ºC on core's under load after several hours of folding (100% CPU), for me it's a great temp @ 4Ghz, what do you think?

 

[p_o_s_pc]

i didn't see any error it just said hang in the fahmon and it stayed at 23% for 2hrs

 

[Skitzo]

were you monitoring from a different pc?

 

[p_o_s_pc]

no.

 

[Skitzo]

K, did you check the console for progress? I've had FAHMon displaying "hung" when the client wasn't. On one occasion it was a different pc and the network card was going to sleep to save power. The other was unexplained but went away after i uninstalled, re-downloaded the client and installed it again. FAHMon may need to be reinstalled as well. Any time my client has hung, there has been an error code displayed in the console window.

the core staus: should be indicated at every shutdown, the codes can be looked up at the fah forum, this is another list of core stautus codes: http://fahwiki.net/index.php/CoreStatus_codes


@ everyone, check this out and provide input if ya have any http://forums.techpowerup.com/showpost.php?p=871887&postcount=1527

How high have you managed to push it? The best my 9600 has done at 825/2100/1000 is ~ 4600 ppd.


@ p_o_s_pc : ppd will fluctuate depending on your current work unit. Any thing your computer does at the same time can also cause a temperary fluctuation. I've looked through the options for monitoring preferences in fahmon and although the numbers aren't the biggest, effective rate seems to be the most accurate.


EDIT: drop in bonus makes sense I wonder how long the gpu clients will have the present bonuses

the 9600GT runs stock speeds apart from the sp's which run at 1950mhz, and i feel they have a little more in them.

i dont keep the whole card overclocked as it seems F@H only uses the sp's.

SMP still isn't working so forget it i am just going to run the normal one
