I'll get one instance on that rig.

Classics! We have 2 of those mammoths at work. About 4' x 4'. lol But damn strong running machines. Just gettin' a little aged.

The folders I have at home sit in my office with the door shut and vent off. It stays about 5-10 degrees cooler that way.

You can fold along side of it.....that torrent stuff shouldn't take much CPU power, just bandwidth.

Bumpity bump bump WHUMP

Comon peeps! We're slipping...steady green lately.

On a side note.

My friend with Multiple Myeloma, had his bone marrow transplant early last fall...hid body rejected it. Not doing well.

Mentally too...he's resigned. Turned into a recluse, won't take visitors or calls. So sad...wife and 2x young daughters.

I have a 550 Mhz amd k62, it's not together, needs an OS and I only have 2 sticks of pc100 @ 32Mb for it. Would that box be of any use, i could dedicate it full time to folding. And if so, what OS should I load, if Win i think 98se might just barely run with those low resources, or how about a linux, and if so, what flavor? Sorry Stonecat, I never got into folding all the time I've been on SG, will fix that now.
Also can't get it online until i get a router (i think you saw my post last weekend in re my new apt). if it'll be useful I'll start putting it together. i have another i'd be willing to fold with, 700 MhZ pent 3- 328 RAM running xp pro (it's my music downloader and test box) my others i dunno, are DOS boxes any good for folding?

Sorry about your friend YOSC. I hope things turn around for him.

When you started this thread I was at 208 and now I'm at 80. Just added my new dual core work machine to the mix. Also using the dual Xeon servers at night when I remember to.

If you set it up as a service, then there will be no icon showing to minimize. If not...there is an option in the configurations settings for start up..then you will see one

aagiants · Post by **aagiants** » Wed Feb 22, 2006 11:41 am

well i didn't install it as a service, its on my laptop, and dont want it running when im on battery life. so how does it work then? should i install the graphical version?

The graphical version will set that icon in your system tray if you wish. I am reading here...that you wish that there..to click on and turn it off when you are on battery life. That one will work for ya then.

It's just a bit slower than the no nonsense version...but it works!!

Maybe someone else can jump in here with some further info for ya. And thanks for coming back!

i just dl the graphical version, i like the fact it turns off during battery life. Should i turn down the graphical draw rate?

Unfortunately I know nada about laptops...so I cannot honestly tell you if turning down the graphics draw would be of an advantage to you or not

Just so you know. The newest version of the No-nonsense version which is a little better then the graphical version, offers "Pause if battery power is being used (useful for laptops) (no/yes) [no]?" under advanced options. You can also set the usage to be a little lower by using the -configonly flag from the command prompt.
