I had a similar issue on my dualie, but it was from a boat-load of ram + Windows swapfile + hibernation file. Turned hibernation off and deleted the file, now I have room again

Oooo, good point. I turned on hidden files in explorer so I should take a look and check that out.

Really all I need to do is expand the partition but I haven't done anything like that in a while. Also, I think I originally made the partition so small so I could back it up to the d: partition.

I had special time this friday, and since I didn'T even used my new watercooling parts for almost 4 months, it is time to go!!

So I changed my XSPC CPU block for a Ek Evo Supremacy nickel acrylic. Cleaned all loop, put 1.5L of distilled water in a bottle, put a full bottle of dazmode protector and I am ready to go. Only thing, now I think my rad wasn't cleaned well at all, I see plasticizer in the gpu block (small amount). I don't know if I need to worry and clean again. If so, I will need to order other dazmode bottle protector :/.

Still have some bubble and foam from the liquid, but I guess it will dissapear.

Well it looks like the Xeons X5675 are giving me amazing ppd:

That's after 3 days running.
When I finish my 4P Machine with 4 X those 5675 I should get around 29.K/30K

Edit: I am getting ready for winter Crunch

Very nice setup, looks great :respect:

I wouldn't worry about that bit of plasticizer imo. I don't think I even flushed or rinsed my last rad when I got it, just threw it in; don't worry til you know you have to

Nice! Only reason I'm not getting it is because I need an ssd in rig 2, the wife's pc. I hate having the OS and such on an hdd, so slow....

Other 2 pcs have a Sammy drive and I love them

Just wanted to share something with the team.

Im not asking for any form of thanks or recognition here, i just want it to be know that I started this team years ago because my good friend, mentor and inspiration for much of what i've done in the computer world inspired me to do so. He got me into crunching and i did so for xtremesystems team before starting this one. eventually i passed the torch to chickenpatty who has done a phenomenal job since then.

Well, Mr Dave "Movieman" Hunt (xtremesystems) passed away tuesday morning around 11am. He had been fighting cancer for over a year. very sad to see him go.

i ask you guys push on and continue your contribution to this team as it may someday lead to helping someone, somewhere and save the lives of many.

Rest in peace Movieman.

Hope his mom is doing ok. As I recall, he was looking after her - last I heard anyway.

I knew he'd had a heart attack about a year or so ago but I don't think I knew about the cancer.

Well, I did... as your score was a lot lower than usual the past days. Though I thought it probably was due to the heat or you doing some maintenance on your rigs. Glad it's up and crunching again!

Wonder how that happened - could it be sabotage? :eek:

You might have to investigate!

Very sorry to hear about that.

Cancer is a hellish beast that needs to be eradicated, or at least be confronted with the most powerful cures to weaken its threat as best as possible.

Well, I was having some difficulty remoting to my P4Cruncher, w/ Teamviewer. I threw it down to poor internet connection, through my 3G HotSpot.

But after a few days of trying, I decided to investigate. In the Teamviewer log, a very confusing set of codes and stuff, I discovered it was failing because of something wrong with the video parameters, or something. So, I sistered it on my Acer Screen, using the D-Sub connection. Nothing, monitor would sit blank for a few seconds and go back to the DVI connection.

So, went through the parts bag, pulled out a Radeon 9600 128MB card to replace the 32MB InsideTNC card that was in it.

Boom, Video. :toast:

I was completely surprised at my ability to spend about ten minutes, and solve it.

Usually takes me much, MUCH longer to figure stuff out, often with the help from you all!

Plus, I think that 9600, may have been included in some stuff I got from a Certain TPU member. Or, it may have come with the broken ASUS board I got on E-Bay, :shadedshu:

Bastard said it worked, apparently it did, TEN YEARS AGO!! No matter, wasn't much and I can maybe fix it, someday. Or Maybe destroy it, trying to fix it. 50/50!

LOL

My main point is this. 99% of what I know about computers, I learned here, at TPU. For that, I THANK YOU ALL!!
