I need to get some help from some AMD guysfor you..All my equipment is intel..as for the firewall issue, Rosy will work through a proxy server, that I'm positive on. I use it with 5 PC's at home with no issues but no commercial experience..I'll try and get you someone better equiped to answer your questionsQuote:

Opty 170@2.7Ghz:
4523 floating point MIPS (Whetstone) per CPU
12924 integer MIPS (Dhrystone) per CPU
P-M 1.6Ghz Laptop:
2282 floating point MIPS (Whetstone) per CPU
9146 integer MIPS (Dhrystone) per CPU
I may add some more systems later at home...as long as my parents don't mind the power usage...lol...and maybe invite some of my friends to join up.:banana:
Wonderful!!! Glad your here:)
I have a question...I think I read about caching WUs so that when one's done...there's no wait time...looks like my opty has WUs cached but my laptop is not doing it.
What determines this? Is it automatic based on system performance or is it user set?
You should replace the original files to make it works.Quote:

Could it be a problem with tiny Xp?
No, i used tiny xp on my last install and cranked 460X and 14,XXX with a 3800+ @ 2500Quote:

Ok I want to join but is this ram intensive or just uses cpu cycles? I have a t2300 Core Duo, A64 3700, and a Celeron 3.4 to dedicate.
It just CPU cycles
So from what it seems -"connects to the network", this program will be using my internet connection?
:welcome: Yes its gonna dl the work units but then you could suspend the access but dont forget to upload your results:)
:welcome:
It connects, downloads a work unit, machine "crunches" the WU, then sends it back..on a normal cable connection you will never even notice the bandwidth usage. Will work on dial up also.
Questions, feel free to ask..Glad to help out!;)
set it up, but not getting anything no projects, and no work processed.
Update: Projects running
The optimization link isn't working.
joined :)
Good to have you aboard Suffocation :toast: were on our way to #1#1:D
Again. :D :woot: We're so good at it, we do it twice, just for good measure. :up:Quote:

I've got no firewalls that I know of... and I'm using AOL :( I know it sucks... a lot and I hate it too but atm that's what I'm able to use as dsl isn't in the area and cable is waay to expensive. Any idea on how to get it working? It says network communication failure btw.
I also ran the cpu benchmark and compared to you guys my p4's score is tiny :( 1489 whetstone 1845 drystone that about right?
it's stock 3.0 and oc'd to 3.5 but that's the best I can get stable at stock. The mobo a P4S800-MX doesn't have the option for voltage increases so it's as far as I can go atm anybody know how to mod it? jw
:welcome: to rosetta!!! I think the project is down cuz I got an error this morning. Just hang tight till it comes back up.
Praxis, read the Optimization sticky, and you should see benches more like this
3175 floating point MIPS (Whetstone) per CPU
11192 integer MIPS (Dhrystone) per CPU
hmm would it have been down yesterday too? lol I set it up yesterday and it didn't work either. I bet it has to do with this Piece of :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: isp that is aol lol. I really hate them :mad: lolQuote:

I actually think it was last night come to think of it:) I only have 10 WU's left so I hope it comes up so I can dl some more.
I wonder if AOL will let Boinc communicate? Most any other dial up ISP is better than AOL. You might want to check around.. MSN maybe?
Opti file you should need (SSE2 for P4) is in this
thread. :)
edit- project was down earlier today, but it's been back up for a while. My rig has uploaded and downloaded wu's since then.
3100 whetstone
6500 drystone :D
however I still can't connect :( probably on my side... somewhere heh
When I surf the web I see my internet connection jump up however whenever I don't touch it at all it stays at 0.00% and that's what happens when I try to use rosetta
anybody have aol and know how to fix this?
Just updated my 3 machines
Can we see a screenie or something of you boincmgr msgs display?
Mine still wont dl any new WU's.

well that's my what the messages say. I'm not good w/ taking screenshots or putting them up... heh well I guess I've just never learned how to.
firewall?
anybody that can help with AOL here?
I'm thinking it's some type of AOL firewall crap not letting it go through...
proxy setting?
Any advice on how to find out proxy settings? And there is an AOL Firewall but I'm almost 100% sure it's not downloaded. I think it actually has to do with this parental control crap. I used to never have it... but then my parents one day decided that I needed it:nono: now I'm on the so called "mature teen" part of it but it used to block google as well... so now I'm thinking this might be blocking it... but I'm not sure. I'll check on my dad's account later tonight and update
:woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: it works!!! well anyway it seems that the overly restrictive filter blocks many things... like rosetta but also pretty much anything that has to connect to the internet :( lol. My email notifier works again and I can play GW too :D
Talk to your father and ask him to loosen the firewall's security settings :)Quote:

I have a P4 2,8 running Rosetta now 24/7.
I'll optimize tomorrow, off to bed now!
But do it as soon as possible!! Good you joined up! :toast:Quote:

ATM only my main desktop is taking part ( xp 2600+ ). Dual P3 800, amd mobile 2400+ and maybe even the quad 3,2 ghz xeon will follow ;)
Welcome to the team! BTW, that quad Xeon will kick butt in Rosey,
Thanks for joining in with us.

OK, I'm new to BOINC. I have the client installed on a few machines and it's working great. I see a lot of posts about optimization but am not sure what that is exactly. I want to make sure I'm getting the most bang for my buck, so someone please clue me in. Thanks.

I just installed Rosetta on a second pc. AMD64 3800 AM2 single core
But i'm still using the crappy boxed cooler , I hope it can handle the heatload.
I need better cooling , urgent :stick:
Can anyone confirm whether the new Zalman 8000 cooler is compatible with AM2?
The website doesn't mention socket AM2 , but I think it will work fine using the clips.
http://www.zalman.co.kr/eng/product/...x=203&code=005
just updated to 5.5.0 optimized, my semp64-2800 rig gained 1k in floating and 3k in integrer. :woot:
gonna update them all ;)
Just installed BOINC on my iMac core duo, hope you guys dont mind me being a mac user ;). I never ran this when i was on PC cause i ddint really know what it was, but i do now and my machine sits idle while im at school all day so i figure why not.
Glad to have you, Karpfish! Welcome to the team! :woot: :cool:
If you have any questions, please feel free to post em, or you can PM me.
Got several macs running myself. That is an intel mac, correct? If so it should do well here.
-SS
yep its an intel mac, i ran folding@home at one point on a non UB at it was painfully slow, so i stopped. BOINC is universal, so its fast. I also have a macbook that i may run it on too, but i dont want heat issues
whats the tteam name?
XtremeSystems
hey guys, i just joined.
Welcome aboard! If you have any question please feel free to post em or you can PM me.
Welcome to XS DC! :D
-SS
so if my average credit is only 14.48, i have to add another computer to get a higher average credit right?
oh, i should optimize it. that might help, does anyone have a link to optimized files? the links i found in this thread didn't work
Depending on how long you've been running, you can expect your Avg credit to continually rise as I believe it is a 10 day moving avg.
Otherwise, I'd recommend goingthru your options and checking the "compute while computer is working"(if you dont experience any problems) flag and removing from memory.
Rosetta has moved to a fixed credit system (approx 2 credits per decoy I believe) so the only way to get more credit is to crunch more decoys. You may run an optimized client if you wish, but it wont assist in getting more credit directly, although it is useful in tuning your system.
As a side note, if you do run an opti and hope to participate in other XS team endeavors, I would recommend that you have a copy of the standard client (or a calibrated optimization) as some projects have expressly stated the wish for everyones use of a standard client.
Changes appear to be in the works to make a fairer b-mark but it could take a bit.
HTH.
-SS
this is great, i'm having a good time. making some use of my computer
Can I ask what is Rosetta and folding?
Sure.Quote:

Rosetta is run through a client called BOINC and Folding is run by the Folding@Home Client.
If you want a more detailed response, i believe Wiki would be of more help.
We need more people to contribute
Holy dead thread.... everyone has moved to WCG, why not join us there?
I joined that Progress thru Processors thing a few days ago, and now I cannot change the account in the Boinc manager. Please help me so I will be able to join WCG.
Hmmmm... I'm really not sure what you mean but perhaps a fresh boinc install could solve your problem? If you have any questions about how to join WCG you might want to look at the stickies at the top of that section... http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...play.php?f=207Quote:

Looked it up through google and it is Facebook's grid thing. I think anyone who signs up under that and installs their software is automatically assigned to Facebook's team.

If you want to run for XS's team I'd stay clear of it, and join under WCG and XS.
Yup, that's what I did:up:Quote:
