It uses your idle computer cycles to analyze little bits of data. After it is done analyzing the set or "Work Unit" (WU) it sends it back to stanford. Basically F@H simulates how different proteins react in different situations.
If scientists can better understand how proteins act and react, they might be able to cure cancer and other diseases faster.
If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.

If you want to fold for XtremeSytems please use team 36362
Unlike DF the owner of the team can move it from place to place whenever they like. And this is what the "owner" of the fold@home team did.Which is pretty unfair realy, he moves and takes all your points with him if you like it or not...
The new team will stay as XS and will not be moved at all ever!
That is why the new fold @ home leader was chosen, he is ready to give the "keys" to the team over at any point.
pythagoras is a great leader and well repected throughout the community..

Well I have some instability somewhere in my dual, still havent been able to figure out exactly where yet. Just started blue screening out of nowhere if I run 2 instances of F@H. Think its memory related honestly though. Although not 100% positive.
Either way, there are 2 instances running at At 50% each right now. Dual board, so its not much, but all I can get.

Figuered i had a machien that i ues just for e-mail, web, trillian and TV 24/7 .
I just put a p4 3.2e sl7e5 Press"hott" in and couldn't do it. it was runing @ 63c and the fan was @ 4800rpm's. Felt like i was back in the athlon days running a Valcano 5 again lol.
Anyways put my trusty 2.4c in. that has been on for over 1 1/2 year"s". Max uptime so far has been 63 days without restart. sometimes my power flickers making it shut down. But anyways

I just signed up to fold on team 36362. I have a wierd picture of a blob on my screen and it says frames completed 1/250. Is this all I have to do? Is there a way you can check the team and see if I am really doing anything? lol
pythagoras
06-04-2005, 12:16 PM
You can close that screen once you have looked at it. When it gets to 250/250 it will send the unit and your points will show up.
There should be a red cog icon in systray, if you right click on that select status, you'll see all the stats options.

p4 2.6g
512 meg ram

question: is this right? it says WU end time is 156 days 6hrs (ish) are they all like this cos if they are how sum of u got 100+ completed?
pythagoras
06-08-2005, 03:23 PM
Hi Tiayth,
Welcome to the team :toast: .
There is definately something wrong with that completion time, but it is updated in real time so if you are using a very high percentage of cpu time the estimate will be based on the cpu time left for F@H at that instance.
If you post a copy of the log file here I'll take a look for you.

John.

06-08-2005, 03:30 PM
i think its sorted now....its got 7500 frames in the wu and i think the first one was just taking a long time cos that took about 25 mins, but now its gone thru the next 85 quickly and the overall time has dropped to just over 1 day

http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/team_overtake.php?s=&t=36362
Thats the overtake stats so every team in green we are out producing, click through the pages from that page to page 2. Its just a matter of time before we are in the top 200. We are out producing every else. More members will put us in the top 100 and our aim should be to put the team where the old one was and beyond ;)
Look how many cpus we have added in 2 months:
http://vspx27.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/main.py?qtype=teampage&teamnum=36362
Thats quite impressive. When we get in the top 1000, thats only days away, we will then get better individual stats with overtake and production figures for all the members, thats when we will really take off :banana:

No offence but maybe people dont think curing a disease is worth killing the planet by having computers running when they dont need to be :nono: :slapass: . If nothing bad would happen, I am sure everyone would help.
pythagoras
07-13-2005, 03:40 PM
You dont need to run computers when you dont need too! Folding at home is designed to run in the background when your computer is on and not being used to its fullest. Surely its better to burn co2 whilst trying to find a cure and browsing the internet than burn the same amount of co2 just browsing the internet?
Regards
John.
I've been forced to shutdown couple of pcs.
Hmm, This is only a quote from this thread. Most people have 'folding farms' where computers are run just for folding. I am sure even you have more than one computer turned on just to fold...and not being used by anyone. Sure it can be ran in the background but it will be using alot more watts under full load. This may only be a little amount but when you are talking 200+ PC's at work (Like the guy above says in this very thread), It really makes a difference and as I said most people just have computers running needlessly just to fold.
You have a good idea for helping people, but if cancer was cured then you can bet the antidote would cost hundreds of dollars, just because if the person did not buy it then the consequences would be grave or very bad.
Members of my family have died of cancer, but killing the planet is not a good way of 'trying' to cure it and others.
pythagoras
07-13-2005, 04:12 PM
Its not all or nothing though is it? Some people choose to leave their pcs on to fold, some people choose to wach television for hours a day and drive cars for distances that dont need them and buy cars that are much bigger than they need. We can all point out excesses. Do you use your pc solely for work purposes or do you game or overclock?
The main point is its your chose wether you choose to fold at 10% load when the pc is on or build a farm thats on 24/7.
If you dont want to fold thats fine.
Regards
John.
Of course people use appliances for their entertainment, everybody watches TV no matter how little. On the other hand very few people leave appliances on 24/7 or through the day when they dont need to or when they are not using them. Do I leave my computer on all day while I am not using it, no of course I dont. The electricity cost would be high, the energy I was using would be very high.
You try and make everyone seem bad for using appliances for entertainment, appliances they use. Keeping things turned on, or many computers turned on when they dont need to be is a waste. Things like this was discussed at the G8 meeting only last week. C'mon why keep computers running (say 610 watts full load for a pc&p power supply, compared to 510 watts under normal comditions). It is just creating waste and polution. checks and balances are the key. There is no use doing something good if it is doing something equally or more damaging in another way.
Yes I game and I used to fold. I will have a car when I am older, but I will not leave the engine running when I am not using it. Folding is a good idea, but thats all it is. I am sure if the person who came up with the idea of folding realised the effects it would have on polution, wildlife, PEOPLES HEALTH, and the resources (in raw material terms and man hours) for thousands of people to fold. He/she would have kept it as just an idea. For all the ill effects caused and all the effort and tangible things used, there are much better ways of curing diease I am sure.

and my folding (groan) joke to make this addition somewhat useful:
This man goes along to the Patent Office with some of his new designs.
He says to the clerk, "I'd like to register my new invention. It's a folding bottle."
"OK," says the clerk. "What do you call it?" "A fottle."
"A fottle?
That's a stupid name. Can you think of something else?"
"I can think about it. I've got something else though. It's a folding carton."
"And what do you call that?" asks the clerk.
"A farton."
"That's rude. You can't possibly call it that."
"In that case," says the man, "You're really going to hate the name of my folding bucket."

EDIT: Ugly and Grey, please dont spam :stick:
pythagoras: When using DI I am not creating more Co2 because DI 'IS' a solid form of carbon dioxide. It is taken form the air and once used is only given back. It is not like a average raw materiel like wood. BTW this thread is titles cure diease, thats what I didnt like about it in the first place. 'Dont fold dont cure dease'. Do you know a weeks worth of real lab testing is worth more than all the folding done so far? Folding is just used the save the labs money and time, why should they pay when you will. Maybe you will help cure a diease one day, maybe, but running computers like most people do, none stop (are you reading Scoop :rolleyes: ), when not in use is not worth it.

I think this topic has gone into woods... so be it.
Maybe, JWB, you have some calculations how much more we folders "kill the planet" :D with our 24/7 computer use, in the comparison to that doctor who is driving (could use masstransportation? A doctor in a buss :D ) an hour to that hospital to cure that patient. When/if that patient is cured, also ready for to be a polluter ;) with so many ways available. If we go even further with this mad thinking... heck I could agree that we shouldn't help to find a cure for diseases, because any human alive/kept alive is a decrease to earth's health :D :D :rolleyes: Is this what you wanted hear? Don't bother me again... I'm busy to fold :D Or perhaps you got some suggestions/better objects to be fold for?
I am sorry, it's just I'm so fixed with a sentence like: "folding is killing a planet" (and I am aware that we should shut up any time... we are at the wrong forum for this kind of debate :D... well I had some english practice also which is a plus for me :p: )
Saving lives is totally different to folding. You think folding is the same as a doctor saving lives everyday!?
I am sorry this is JWB's brother in law, I am using his computer, maybe I should have used a new acount. I am a doctor (we use Di sometimes to save amutees limbs, biological samples and for drug shipm,ents etc) . Many of my friends in the profession I know saved many lives at St Mary's hospital, last week, so dont you dare tell me that a doctor going to work saving lives is unimportant! being a doctor or being someone who owns numerous computers folding are two different things. This is all I will say on the subject . Maybe one day you will wake up realise how important doctors are

Yep, someone peed in his cornflakes. I had a neighbour like that. Finally I went to the pet store and bought a 1000 crickets. I set the open box at his front door. You can bet some made it inside and chirped away all summer (I know they did). The next year I tied a dead salmon to the undercarriage of his car.... he was a real sweetheart....
In folding news I've added two more systems today to my units. A couple P4 3GHz fireservers that were sitting in the pile. I really wish this stuff ran on Unix so i could be of more help.

Every computer at work is used to enter orders, check emails, word processing etc. Of course they can fold. They're computers are on 9 hours a day anyways so might as well use it to its fullest no?
True folding farms might not be the best way, but hell I have 1 computer and it's often on the whole day downloading foreign dramas. I choose use the remaining 90% of my cpu to fold or for d2ol...

Your system is not stable and the program is detecting that. It likes the system it's running on to be stable. I don't want to start a discussion here on this but is your computer Pi stable 32m? If you need some help post in the AMD section and the guys including me can assist you. If I chat about it here Pythagoras will beat me with a wet towel....(j/k he's a very nice guy)

Hi, I just entered the team about 5-10 minutes ago. So far I only have a pitiful XP 1800+ @ 2400+ on it, but I'll add my new X2 3800+ to this soon enough :)
I have a question though, It's been about 10 minutes, yet I'm still at 0 out of 1000000 steps...Why ?!?
Edit : Forget this ^^
Also, I'll format this computer soon and will give it to one of my friend...Is there any way to actually take my account back on my new comp ?
Finally, is there any way to run 2 instances (this) on each core of an X2 ?
Ugly n Grey
10-05-2005, 08:33 PM
Hey Welcome to the team :toast:
No need to move your account to your new computer, just reinstall the software using the same name and team ID just like setting up another rig. If you have partially finished results, you can install the client on teh new machine and then copy over the files from the old box if you like.
As far as two instances go, you can run two command line instances I will look that up for you.
On behalf of Pythagoras our team leader and the rest of the team, welcome!

Ugly n Grey
10-06-2005, 05:39 AM
Hi One Hertz!!! Thanks for joining us man! Welcome, welcome!!
To run two versions, it's easier to run the console plain jane version. Just put a copy in separate directiories and make sure the CPUID is different for each copy.... cut and paste follows, I scored this information here (http://72.14.207.104/search?q=cache:OsCtmgEQocUJ:www.nforcershq.com/forum/3-vt54208.html%3Fstart%3D20+run+two+instances+of+F%4 0H&hl=en&client=firefox-a)
For you dual processor guys here's how to make F@H work with both procs:
F@H FAQ and console version FAQ wrote:
F@H Client Do's and Don'ts
The console is not an installer, but the actual Folding@Home client executable. In general, just download it, run it, and don't worry about it. However, if you like to be "hands on" with F@H, please keep in mind:
* Each different running copy of F@H has to have its own Machine ID number. If you download each copy of F@H from the web site and configure fresh, there will be no problems.
* Do not run multiple copies of FAH from the same directory
Console Client Configuration Options
-config
Allows users to change their configuration information. This includes user & team names (reflected in the stats), whether or not to ask before a network connection is made to fetch/send work, set up proxy servers, preferred work unit type (Folding/Genome), process priority, CPU usage requested (5-100%), whether or not to use assembly loops, whether or not to use deadline information, and Machine ID changes.
-service
Run in service mode (for programs such as firedaemon). This prevents the client from exiting when it detects the current user is logging out. If this option is used when the client is not run as a service then it will run normally, but will not shut down automatically if the user logs out, and a "Wait for program to close." dialog box will be displayed.
Meaning:
- You should install two instances of the F@H console version, in different directories;
- Then you run each one, at the command prompt, with the "-config" switch;
- A different machine ID must be set to each instance.
One_Hertz
10-07-2005, 07:13 PM
Alright dled the console version now have a normal version and a console version running with cpu usage being 100%, but still do not really feel any performance hit :woot: for dual core
Ugly n Grey
10-07-2005, 08:53 PM
I know the little program combines with the dual core is amazing, as soon as you start doing anything serious the application backs right off and lets the new app take the CPU cycles. With the two cores going you don't even feel it.
One_Hertz
10-10-2005, 04:57 AM
hmmm having a little problem....
The console version will sometimes stop folding while giving me the following message:
Size of work/wudata_06.xtc not what saved
Folding@Home Core Shutdown: FILE_IO_ERROR
Any ideas? :stick:
Also I have been folding for the past 30 hours and I didnt really get the team any points... Is there something wrong or the page just doesnt update very frequently?
Ugly n Grey
10-10-2005, 08:00 AM
If you go into the directory where it is installed there is a log, it will have more details.
Is your system overclocked? Ocing is great but it has to be perfectly stable for f@h to work. Can you describe your system set up for me? RAID, disk, mobo, CPU, RAM, current settings?
There are also some known issues running the console version together with the graphical version as well.
What's your user name on the team?
One_Hertz
10-10-2005, 08:18 AM
Hmm thats what it says in the log:
[11:06:19] Size of work/wudata_06.xtc not what saved.
[11:06:19]
[11:06:19] Folding@home Core Shutdown: FILE_IO_ERROR
[11:06:21] CoreStatus = 75 (117)
[11:06:21] Error opening or reading from a file.
[11:06:21] Deleting current work unit & continuing...
Ofcourse my system is overclocked :rolleyes:
3800+ X2 @ 2.6ghz (260*10) and AFAIK it is 100% stable but I never did a dual prime for more then 30 min... also my "normal" FAh version never crapped out or anything. Mobo is neo2 plat, hard drive FAH is running on is a 74 gig raptor, ram is some crappy 1gig kingston until my vx comes back form rma (I know thats stable... ran 8 hour memtest)
Username on the team is the same as the forum one... One_Hertz

50 One_Hertz 236 3.
3 packets and low score means errors usually.
http://vspx27.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/main.py?qtype=teampage&teamnum=36362
Initially when I started F@H I just threw is on the puter I was benching, and of course it errored out all the time. That why I have so many work units downloaded for my actual score to be so low.
As a good general rule of thumb, if your x2 computer is Dual 32Meg Super prime stable, F@H will run without erroring out. It is an intensive math application. I have to think that you are getting some kind of HTT problems if you are getting disk errors though. Either that or you have plain old disk problems, you can run the manufacturers non destructuve drive test and see if that's the case.
Just so you know, the code is rock solid (as much as any code can be). I've never had a problem with it on a stable rig.

Hey Mod... Stanford WU servers won't give to your rig too large WU because they know how much ram you've got in it;) Or could easily reduce the amount what those servers see.
I've seen +100MB WUs sometimes. Maybe WUs can be a lot bigger, haven't seen yet:p: (but were those QMDs over 200MB? My memory isn't what it used to be... so like before New Years Eve Party:toast: )

I am having trouble getting folding installed on my freshly formatted hdd. I've tried several times and they're still acting weird. I reinstalled 2 to 2 different directories and used "configonly" command in the console version to config them. They seem to be somehow interacting with each other. Machine ids change to the one I start up first. If I shut one down, the other says it stopped, but the program doesn't close.
Maybe I'll just run the one and turn off HT. I only have 512 ram on this system anyway.

Thats probably it. I'm gonna try to just run one with HT off for a little while to see what it puts up. It'll probaby get better numbers with just one.

just joined up. Figured I will let this X2 get some good use.
One core for folding, 2nd core for working :)
Hopefully in a few weeks I will set up a Pentium M celeron that I got sitting here (something to keep the electric bill down, while still offering decent performance).

Hi kLLa142, I had a P2 folding for a few days and it ran fine; but slowly. It will turn in work very slowly and will receive few points for its efforts, if I'm understanding the scoring system correctly. But, as they say, it all helps :)
Btw I noticed my P4 turned in a WU about 12hrs ago (client said it had sent it succesfully), but no sign of it @ stats page yet. Any else experience this recently? I'll try and force a resend later i think.

Do it! I've got to take some time to o/c all of my rigs a bit more, and remove any cdroms & unnesessary parts. The older ones have no pci/agp lock, which always limits them to a minimal o/c I find, but still worth doing if there's a few of them.

I always use cheapo RAM and put a divider on it, if it really wont clock very high. I cant remember what the divider is currentlyon my 144, but its not 1:1 thats for sure. 2.5Ghz of AMD is still pretty handy, the opty was working on some small WU's yesterday and benchmarked at 500ppd on FahMon!

805@3.5Ghz 1GB mem
P3 800 256mb mem
Mobile celeron 1.6@2.4Ghz 512mb mem.
Should I just change my team number to 36362 in the folding client to join your team? Also I am interested in checking how my pcs are going collectively, that is their folding performance. The mobile celery pc's onboard video for some reason does not show the folding results when I maximize the client.
Hoping to join you guys soon. Cheers.

Hi greenwar & welcome :D
I replaced my 650 system for an 805 today, great chip; well impressed with how responsive the machine is, I think enabling sata2 on my drive helped a lot too.
I only use the text client, so the following may not apply to the graphical client...I think just changing your team id should work fine, though you might want to check the log when they start they're next WU & check the team number has changed. There's a nice little prog called FAHmon which is handy for tracking progress, just add a new client & point it to the FAH folder for that machine (ie local or shared over network). Forgive any mistakes its late here :yawn2:

Hey Jimwah, thanks. I saw pics of your folding rigs. Nice little folding firm you got going there. :)
For my 805, do I need to do the registry tweak to run two instances of console version of folding? I downloaded the console version, configured then in their individual folders using the local key and opted to set them as service.
After doing some google search I saw that people suggest changing the registry also. I checked logs of each folding console and saw that they did indeed engage and are working their individual work units, I figured I am set then. Let me know what you guys think.
Thanks in advance.
jimwah
05-10-2006, 12:00 AM
As long as you've got the machine ID's set at 1 for the first client & 2 for the second, you should be set; which it sounds like you have sorted already. Are you on the stock cooler for that 805? Mine's a little warm (55c with 2xfah running) so I'm thinking about getting a couple of Artic Freezer 7's this week, put one on the 650 too :D
The farm's looking a bit better now man, I'll update that piccy later 'cos I've got a big windowed chieftec & a P180 case to show off now ;)
