My E7200 is stable @ 4008mhz 1,40 vcore (24hour of prime) but for folding only 3200mhz@ 1.30 vcore,I don't understand why, but i guess i have to live with it.

Before i fold @ 4008mhz without any issue ,but for the last 2 week something change? and i'm using vista ultimate 32 for the last years.

To everyone having problems with 6.20 SMP:

Have you upgraded to 6.23 Beta R1? That's what i had to do with 5 rigs. click the link and look to the bottom of the page for "Drop-in binary for current Windows SMP console client (6.23)" . Just delete the old executable and paste this one in.

Here is the link:http://folding.stanford.edu/English/DownloadWinOther

I drop in the binary for smp client last week,after you told me to do it Buck,and now my smp client run perfect @3200mhz everything higher than 3200mhz result in "missing workfile".

I try many overclocked and vcore setting and the best for me right now is @ 3200mhz for 850ppd. Thanks

Try bumping your MCH / VTT a little. I had the same problem the first time before I tried running F@H. I had 1.32 mch and it primed 24 hours but my computer would freeze randomly with folding. Bumped it so 1.36 and I have no problems now

My SMP just finished its first work unit (1920 woot!), my machine is now running round the clock like a pro. Can't tell why it had issue the first time around, maybe just needed a chance to burn in the fresh Arctic Silver. Anyways I'm running the 6.22 version of SMP and haven't had issue, I didn't go 6.23 because I wasn't sure if it supported Vista x64. I didn't see anything along those lines (and honestly I didn't really look too hard because 6.22 was working). I might try it later now seeing you guys have issues.

Currently following one more electronics store (12th in 4 days) for a resistor, failing that I'll order online which I find a bit ridiculous, but oh well. Anyways when I get the dummy plug up I'll be pulling around 11000 PPD - 13000PPD. Currently sitting around 6k-7k.

Soon after, and the final step will be my first foray into overclocking. Upon finding a stable voltage and putting some VF1000s on my 9800GTXs, I'll be sitting pretty and letting this sucker crank away.

I'll give it a shot. Running now and will see what happens for the next few days.

Maybe my overclock which was stable for XP is not stable for Vista? May need to do some Prime95 runs to check if it is a system stability issue or a folding issue.

Thanks Buck... You da man...

Actually, now that you mention I haven't thanked buck for one iota of the help he's provided. Thanks man, keep up the crazy helping and the insane PPD. You helped me tons and made setting myself up a whole bunch easier.

Well, I partially ripped apart my main rig, then reassembled it. Now it runs like there was never a problem! 9800gtx back up and folding....

Congrats, good to hear it back up and running. Mobo's can be weird sometimes. I just spent 120 bucks to replace a mobo that's perfectly good. Turns out the PSU SATA power connector wasn't providing enough power to HD and board could not recognize it. I just love troubleshooting

1.5 weeks and we should be #104...so hopefully make the top 100 in a month.




So fold on and help break the 100 mark.

Well... have have been getting some errors while folding with my 260, which I think are due to my crappy PSU.
So I put my Pc P&C 750 into the 260 and has been folding all day with no problems yet ::fingers crossed::

So what PSU's are you all using to power your folding rigs ??

I will have to upgrade a couple of mine and want to be future proof as well (in case I add more cards)
Would like a solid/stable PSU >750W with at least 4 pci-e connectors, 6 would be even better for the future.

Any suggestions post them up here.Would like to stay under the £160/$240 mark.

For 24/7 folding, you can't beat Antec or Corsair for cost/efficiency. The Corsair 750TX has a 60amp rail/4x pci-e 6/8 pin and is tested beyond it's rated power. It's a great PSU and $120.00 on Newegg. Whatever you get, make sure it's 80+ certified.

Thanks Buck, I have been looking at those Corsair PSU's.They are about the same price as the Pc Power&Cooling 750 silencer which I have already (another great PSU)

I was thinking of getting one with 6xPci-e and then I could run 3 cards on the same board and maybe save some money that way.But going any higher spec and the price seems to shoot up quite a bit more .
