Maximum PC

Defrag didnt take long, runnin xp, dont seem to help, but I really wasnt expectin it to.

I'm gonna test one more thing once a WU finishes, but its on my other PC, so itll only gain 100ppd, IF I'm lucky.

Besides that, I have some sort of driver issues I think, been that way since I built it, havnt been able to figure out what it is. After a while at load, the sound (and vid) start skipping every 2 or 3 secs. Won't stop till a restart. I think thats hindering me a little. Mainly cuz i think thats whats preventing me from a stable OC.

your client numbers went up again mister, mom and whom else you have going over there?

F@H stats isn't working right now, but I'm not sure why it would have went up, I'm still only actively using 7, and like I said, Moms wasn't worth it, so it folded long enough to realize that, not even a WU, and I stopped. Just wait another couple days and you'll see my active clients in 7 days going down, so don't worry, nothing is new.

I don't know if i can believe that your FAHmon says 4800, cuz you haven't made too much under that in a while, and your usually well over. Last I saw you had 6 clients, but I thought you were running one SMP and one GPU, so where are the other 4 coming from? I'm scared your using more than you lead on.

I had two VM going before I went over to SMP and I had a regular client running on my CPU a while back. Right now it is just my GPU, SMP and laptop, those other two should drop down to the 50 day spot in a day or two. I might switch up my laptop and try linux or something on it in the next day or two if I cannot shake you. You pulled back ahead of me. Only by 200 points but a win by 2 points is still a win. I'm actually supposed it hasn't died or melted yet, it is over 5 years old, that much heat cannot be good for a laptop, especially a Dell, the walmart of computers

I have about another 700 points waiting to get updated, the GPU has been cranking out 350s all afternoon and my CPU will finish just after midnight good for tomorrow I suppose though.

humm someone might be picking sides and giving you a little boost!

Maybe I'll see if I can enlist the creamsicles!!

Ok, F@H stats workin. I see that your active in 7 days is down to 5, so thats good. I also see that mine is up, to 13! I can't think of why, I tested something on my 2600, but it was with the same client, Heck, the test called for me STOPPING one client, not adding one.

I can only think of 11 clients I have used in TOTAL, tests and all, so I'm not sure what the other 2 are, like I said though, over the next few days, the count will go down, and in 5 or 6 days, it should read 7.

If anyone is (i dont think they are, or I would have more points), that would account for 1 or 2 of the rouge(sp?) clients. Please dont though, we wanna keep this mano-a-mano, with only what we own.

Thank you for wanting to help, but please stop.


...and no creamsicle help...

ALRIGHT EOC, I KNOW HES A THREAT!!! I CANT GET AWAY FROM HIM!!!
:evil:

you're having one hell of a day, this is probably your best day ever. Glad I'm finally on your threats list after passing you I think twice now

Although, you are up at the moment, I guess I'll just have to make it 3!!!

Yea, today was a result of that "last chance" folder i told you about. I'm now making a few more points, but it slows down how frequently they finish, thus giving me more at a time.

It is bittersweet, cuz I have a few more points comming, so I'll be over 6500 today, changing the scale of my graph, making the overlays take a little longer. Don't get me wrong though, more points id def. more important than the graph, but now you need an over 6500 point day.

Check the clients, mine is now down to 13/10 and yours went to 6/3.

Now that we aren't experimenting anymore, mine should go down, and yours should stay the same, correct?

Well, for now, until GPU3 comes out. I really hope they save ATIs folding like people are saying...

airlugnwoeirugnwortnpw My laptop restarted last night, I woke up to my main turned off, then when I got it back on my GPU crashed and restarted so I not only lost all nights work but any work that HAD been done before it turned off I lost.

You got 2WUs done at 3am, 1 at 12, and one at 9, so it prolly wasnt down that long...

But yea, thats not what you need after I do a 7500 point day. Don't worry though, cuz according to F@H stats, your still ahead.

Are you sure you lost them? You finished 2 more pretty big WUs at 6am too. If you were down, it wasn't very long, and you may have lost one WU, but I think they all were recovered.

looks like they reported just before it shut down. Thank god, the WU on the SMP takes my CPU a day and a half to finish, that would be devastating right now, especially with your recent pickup. I lost a little bit of a WU on the CPU after it reported since you have to close the SMP clients carefully in order to not lose the work. Then I lost my GPU WU when it crashed this morning, I'm guessing that was the 27 pointer that was posted.

You see tbrownell come out of nowhere? He was dead as a rock until we passed him now he just posted 8k in 24h and is on our heals.

Whats the new client? You now have 7/4.

You got a nice average there man, 5100ppd... even if I lose, I know I've brought many points to the team, not only did I bring me, but I've forced you to 5x your output. Not to mention my buddy folding now, and a few more I'm starting up soon, one with an i7 and 9800GX2 i think.

I will have a new client soon too. I got a bad WU (normally 1200-1600ppd, this one was 800) and it was huge (3000+ points)so I got rid of the old one to use this one. No way I can sacrifice 400-800ppd for 3.5-4 days right now.

not sure what is up with the new client, I have not been to FAH website to look, the last few times I have gone it is updated, seems like it is always updated. The timing of it would have had to of been my laptop, my CPU and GPU were working on large WU yesterday so tehy didn't report until late last night and this morning. It must have seen my laptop as a new one for some reason, it reported around then, didn't change anything though.


What happened to you yesterday? That bad WU really took its toll on your PPD eh?

A couple clients take a long time, they should show up soon, I also have at least one client that's been trying to upload the WU for well over a day.

When the internet finally realizes what I've made, I'll be close again(I've got about 4k done that hasn't showed up.)

I just hope it doesn't do this to one of us when we get to the top 1000, cuz thats def enough error to make the winner lose.

yeah, I'm a little worried about that too, if you finish a WU just after standford updates you have to wait 4 or 5 hours until it shows up on their site, then depending on when EOC updates it could be another hour or two, as close as we have been 6-8 could definitely be a deciding factor.

About 5 and a half days left!
