    Will a high end video card make a big difference in output. I want to know because if it makes a big difference, than I might think about upgrading this one.

    Yeah, a nice fast processor, even an AXP doesn't do half bad, since I'm running on and it doesn't do half bad lol. Yeah if you want more cans, get a higher end processor or just overclock more

    How much can an overclocked FX-55 do?

    If only I can set up my other rig...stupid Linux.

    OK,I got a question that I havn't seen the answer for.I installed it on a twin amd setup. I installed 2 instances of D2Q in different folders. it seems that only 1 is starting.WHAT did I do wrong? I've looked and looked but the instructions for a twin setup are not very clear.(Glad I'm not tring to do it on a linux system!)

    sounds like its trying to run both on CPU0 rather than D2OL on CPU0 and D2OLa on CPU1. Not really quite sure how to make it run correctly everyboot up. Can you move the task to the other processor

    Twin xp. I installed in C and in D,OK got them running.
    I'm just gonna run this system to see what it's like. May convert more over later,just depends on how things work with it.The twin Op's will stay on fad.Just ordered parts for 6 twin intel systems.It all depends on how things run with it

    Welcome to the team, Plum! I noticed your name in the Free-DC stats site; coming in at team member position 110.

    Not sure who 109 is, but welcome to you, too.

    hey, could you try out D2OL on your dual Opteron? No big deal if you can't, a few questions have come up lately about how many cans one of those can do

    thanks

    What did you do to solve it? Maybe it can help someone else in the future?

    I renamed the second install icon in the startup folder. I must say there's not much info on setting up a twin install that I could find.I didn't use the script install because of the troubles I read about on the D2Q forums and the common team install. WOW what a mess!!!! That made me a bit leary of installing D2Q,The way The D2Q management and mods re acted to your posts makes me wonder about the commitment on their part.NOT KOOL!!!
    Anyway when I installed the second node it replaced the first nodes icon in the startup folder.

    D2Q? you mean D2OL?

    If so I think you are referring to this thread?
    http://www.d2ol.com/cgi-bin/ultimate...c;f=7;t=000726

    This issue has been resolved and only applied to the community account installers. It's perfectly safe to use them... that applies to the personal node installers as well.

    If you are worried about any lack of support from using the installers, Don't worry. As for kb9skw's comments at the end of the thread... He doesn’t represent D2OL... He's a member of team Ars Technica and I know for a fact that my installer has been used there...

    He cannot act without prodigious being he is on a team that is soon to be steam rolled by XS

    So fear not about support... There is more than enough knowledge here so that you will never need to touch the official D2OL boards. And if you must seek help at the D2Ol forums you will get help. There not going to refuse to support there own app. That would just be silly.

    sorry,I meant D2OL. I'm not worried about support here,I meant being a newbie to D2OL and reading the responce from the D2OL admin made me think of the old UD days.Sorta like shut up an don't bother us.
    I was researching info on the program there as I did here.The better I understand it the better I can make it work per system.

    I have a problem. I try to manually update D2OL, and it says that it has an error connecting to the server. I'll wait the 6hours and see if that changes. Any ideas y?

    Well hopefully it will be down less than 24 hours, better yet, much less.

    I have 500 on each machine, 600 on some. That is at least 3 days worth, but I worry about others, who may have not heeded the advice to get at least 200...

    If it's not up in a couple hours It will definitely be up in the morning. Unless Jeff melted another D2OL server
