i am going to tell you this right now, don't run the gpu client if you have a weak gpu with less than 512mb of vram

there is a reason they make this suggestion

i had it running on an x1600pro with 256mb of ram, i fold for another forum

when i first started it, everything worked fine, but the system seemed a little laggy whenever i did anything like move windows around

sort of like when you first install windows and it doesn't have a driver for the video card so everything seems to work fine, but when you scroll windows or move them around it starts to get real sluggish

it was exactly like that

then when i let it go over night and came back the mouse and keyboard just stopped taking commands, but i had task manager up and everything was still chugging away in it just fine, and the clock was still moving

it never failed to show this behavior when i folded using the gpu

when i folded using just the cpu it worked fine, so i can only assume it was because i had a much weaker gpu than is recommended

While I suppose the GPU client can be run on your X300SE, I think F@H suggests an X1600 at the very very least.

try rereading my post very very carefully

You probably have to turn off- deadlineless work units. I have read that these deadlineless ones are no longer being sent out. I could not recieve any work when I had this option turned on.

If you are using the console text-only version- to turn it off create a shortcut to F@H exe then right-click the shortcut and select properties then at the end of the target line add a space then -config This will allow you to set options/adv.options the next time you click this shortcut. After the options are configured remove the -config flag from the shortcut if you don't want to go through the options at the next launch.

Still folding strong, working my way up the ladder.

Thermopylae_480 · Mar 15, 2007, 04:05 AM

What determines amount of points? I have only completed two work units, but I have more points than people who have completed more than I.

I think it has to do with how complex the work unit is and how much computational power it takes to complete.

I run the console version, and it tells me how many steps it has to complete, right now I have one that has 20,000,000 steps and another that has 5,000,000 steps. I assume work units with more steps give you more points since they take longer to complete.

Thermopylae_480 · Mar 15, 2007, 04:17 AM

That was my guess, but I wanted to see what other thought. My last one was 20,000, my PIII is working on a 5,000, and my PIV just started a 5,000. I wonder if the amount of time it takes to finish a work unit effects points also? I guess I'll find out when the PIII finishes tonight.

KennyT772 · Mar 15, 2007, 05:02 AM

the score is determined in time to complete vs a 2.8ghz p4. they first run a wu on that then assign it a score. if you finish in half the time then you get double the score.

Thermopylae_480 · Mar 15, 2007, 05:05 AM

Ah, thank you. Exactly what I wanted to know.

Alcpone · Mar 15, 2007, 05:02 PM

Yep, folding strong @ my end, doing my bit to cure nasties

newtekie1 · Mar 16, 2007, 08:13 AM

Someone has 71 work units and 0 score, how is that even possible?

Polaris573 · Mar 16, 2007, 01:48 PM

They must be completing their WU past the deadline.

Alcpone · Mar 16, 2007, 06:51 PM

Im processing the lambda data and its taking longer than the usual proteins, maybe I have been seen as worthy for more complex data

infrared · Mar 16, 2007, 07:31 PM

yeah, taking longer for me too. About 15 mins per step on my C2D @ 3.2ghz =/

Alcpone · Mar 16, 2007, 08:04 PM

It says 1.7 secs per frame on mine, dunno if that is very accurate or what?

infrared · Mar 16, 2007, 09:10 PM

oh, you're using the graphical client.

newtekie1 · Mar 17, 2007, 05:01 AM

One of my clients is on lambda, it is taking longer, but I am sure it is worth a lot more points too.

Work units ending early.
I had problem running with one of the consoles, would always end early,so no points.
But all sorted now

DOM · Mar 17, 2007, 02:34 PM

when using Graphical Client, if the card is OCed will it make it finish faster

Yeah it will, they recommend you dont switch between clocks when it is testing though as it resets the code and basically fucks that unit up!

TXcharger · Mar 17, 2007, 03:31 PM

ok i give in because my grandmother has Alzheimer's where do i DL it? and ill see if i can get my moms c2d running it as well since shes never on it
