Sounds Great. I plan on loading it on my PC as soon as I get home from work. What do you want to use as the team name (SpeedGuide.net Team)?

Okay, I just installed it as "Seed of Chaos (Speedguide.net Team)".

For those of you who installed it under a different name (team), you can edit the name in the file "client.cfg"

Hopefully we'll beat those diseases anytime soon

Cheers,
Ronald

Way to go Bro's! Let's fold ssome protiens and kick some a$$! Use the console version as the screen saver is said to have some bugs in it. I know of a work around so that it can constantly run in the background, that way the DOS window doesn't sshow.

Thank's guys!

Come on Speed Guiders, it only runs when you are not using your puter. I am still at 88% resources. It uses less than 2% on my puter!!! <2%!!!! What kind of sacrifice is that????

Let's GO, download the console version and lets ROCK!!!!!

It is a good cause, peeps. All of the regulars should join in...

JANDOENT,

I just got home from work and installed it. How do you make it run in the background without the DOS Screen showing?

DIDS · Post by **DIDS** » Thu Jan 25, 2001 1:23 pm

To Join Speedguide.net Team:

1. You have 2 choices of programs to use:
One is a screensaver and will run only in screensaver mode.
The other is a DOS console client that runs continuously.

Screensaver (latest version) - Download

Console Client (latest version) - Download

Now, after the download is complete, open it:

It will then prompt you for your name (see image)

Mine Looks Like This:

It is very important to enter the team name EXACTLY
as it appears in this picture. If you capitalize the wrong
letters, or misspell, you won't receive credit for your work.

Obviously substitute your name for whatever you want.
Just make sure that (Speedguide.net Team) is placed
after your name. Make sure you place the team name in
parenthesis as shown in the picture above.

After you have entered your name, just click "next"

You are now a Speedguide.net Team Member!

Ok, I downloaded it and installed it. I went to the website, and maybe I am blind, but I am not sure what exactly this program does. Could someone please send me an email explaining the purpose of this. Does it analize data like Seti@Home. I am running it though.

Way to go everyone!!
Mike, the program is kinda like seti, you let your puter help fold proteins to possibly discover cures for diseases. you can stop it or just let it run. Me, I won't shut mine down as it only uses 2% of my resources. I think that I can spare that much for humanity...

I have just started learning about it, but I had some veins rupture yesterday in my eye that has the blood clot behind it, so I am really having a hard time to see now.
I will get some more info together and post some helpful hints tonight in a bit.

DIDS, Thanks a lot for posting the info, I was gone most of the day at the doctors and am just now regaining enough site in my good eye from being dialated. Please give me a little patience as my head is killing me from the bright lights used in some of the tests the Doctor performs...

With all of these top knotch, state of the art puters, we are talking about 2% resources A measley 2%!!!

I believe that update link to v1.32 is a beta. The official site still shows v1.20 as the main download.

You would probably be better off doing a reinstall. Make sure you when you reinstall it again that you follow the instructions in the 12th post on the first page of this thread. You should be all set after that.

JANDOENT · Post by **JANDOENT** » Fri Jan 26, 2001 8:18 am

If every one that really joined and is running the program, would post, I will verify that we are getting credited correctly later today as I have an email out to the University to correct my name.
