i don't know, i tried to run it this AM and got errors as well, i know this SMP deal doesn't like overclocking much, really show errors if there is a hint of instability, had the similar issues with the VM client on really big work units

maybe try reducing you CPU clock some ?

here is the error i got this AM........

Stock speed right now, its still at 100% cpu usage so I'll let it keep going.

EDIT: It be trouble, posted on the offical forum.

Yup, deleted the entire fah folder, reinstalled, on the reinstall I left indicated memory alone and advmethods off, all good.

28 mins a frame. Your results?

Posted: **Sun Mar 18, 2007 8:34 pm**

i was getting errors this morning so i shut it down, this evening i deleted the work folder and the queue file and tried it again, getting about 26minutes per frame @ 2.50Ghz

one other thing, when i woke up this AM, i had a nice blue screen on this PC, not sure if it was the beta deal or what, so i am back to running 2 regular clients for now.

might try and clock my PC a bit lower and see what happens later.

Posted: **Mon Mar 19, 2007 8:12 pm**

so far so good

Posted: **Tue Mar 20, 2007 7:28 pm**

Yup! nice point boost there!

ya run it for a few weeks and you will really like it, when i was using that VMware deal, i was getting about 7K -8K per week with all my PCs together, now back down to about 4K per week.

I am pretty excited about trying this but I am going to wait until after beta likely.

I have a dual quad core Xeon I just put the fah client(s) on and it would be nice to run fewer instances. I can only run FAH on this box about 12 hours a day but that is better than nothing.

I am getting 3 new core2 duo's here as well. Maybe I will try it out on my personal box before putting it on the other 2 (SMP that is since FAH is going on them all SMP or not :P) Maybe I will throw it on my X2 4400+ at home to try out as well.

Another Btracy post!

nice list of new boxes there. I have it on my 4400+ Install can be a little annoying as stonecat is finding out. lol

ya them big points deals are nice, congrats

Not too hot on this, you need to load .net 2.0 to run it.

.net 2.0 is fine, whats your beef with it? A bunch of good apps I wouldnt be able to run without it.

Posted: **Fri Mar 23, 2007 6:46 pm**

Oh yeah and goobster! Good to see ya around!

How have things been going?

I'm just a little anti-MS at the moment. Last I heard, .net framework was supposed to be open source. Then I heard MS patented patented certain parts of it. How can it be open source if parts of it is restricted? My understanding could be wrong though.

I dunno, but I know without .net 2.0 I wouldnt be able to use paint.net, or Amro's programs, and now SMP fah

oh come on goobee, don't be a sissy, let's see what that quad core rig can do, of course ya need "the_snake" for a user name to make it count

anyways, good to see ya posting here again
