Started Back up today...

[CaptMorgan]

It was starting to get a bit cold around here and the new wife actually requested I start up those computers of mine, is it even possible. fired up some of my older cards first, did get some errors but I did expect some turbulence since my rigs have been off for a while- the GTX 275/285's so far.

I did have a bit of a concern regarding the long work units- you guys only doing them with newer cards or just staying away from them altogether?

I'm running long WUs on everything - even my GTX 260 (when it will behave - I think it needs to be RMA'd...)

Also, if you have a stable internet connection you can lower your cache to 0.01 days and then it will only get a WU when your newest one is about to complete - gives you the best chance at getting the 24 hour bonus. Unfortunately my internet goes out for an hour at a time every now and again, so I have to leave it up a bit higher.

Not sure how I missed this post, but thank goodness another one of our top crunchers is back. God bless your missus!

Now, if we could just get a few more of the MIA in our top 25 to re-join...

Welcome back mate!

Btw, it seems like LONG WUs won't work for anything older than G200s. I have a 9800GTX+, but the WUs just error out immediately.
Explanations?
