    Just checked the agent on my main rig as it's been running some hours and I thought from reading the threads here it should have shown some points already but still nothing?

    Isn't there anything else that I have to do to get it running? Or do the statistics take awhile to update?

    Yup I noticed

    P3 not running yet, so just one agent on the main rig. Had a party today, gf turned 23 last week but most off our friends and relatives came over today. Half past eight now, all day serving beverages and cutting pie IS tiresome, might be bad night off sleep to though. Tomorrow the p3 will go online, as well as putting the agent om my gf's p4.

    So... there aren't any other tweaks involved with getting the most out off this project, just install and let it rip? Thought reading somewhere you could set intervals ect but I can't find it in the application.

    Yeah the p3 and gf's still not on this sorry for that attention hasn't really been focusing on this yet. Need to finish some other things, tie up some loose ends and more importantly, during daytime I got to take care off my 7 month old boy.

    For all you guys who think the missus being at home raising the kids is having an easy job, trade with her for a month or so. I'll bet you'll be buying her some flowers more often.

    No excuses... p3 is right next to me, still has hdd issues I need to sort. But first f@h

    Agent 2 running on the p4, p3 still not doing anything usefull sorry for that. Points will only really show up when I got the p3 running vm's, as both my quad and the gf's p4 os's are just the way I like em ( besides that nasty virus which took me 7 hours off scanning and cleaning on a diagnostic mode running os ). Probably lost allot off points on dimes not being started automaticly, with all the recent reboots

    Riptide how does this work, I notice wireless being 30% less points then wired, while I thought it was using just a certain max bandwidth per client? The p3 still isn't up

    Some people noticed drops in wireless in the past. But I sure as hell don't. My entire setup is now wireless. Even the ISP is wireless. What I do notice is though that on most of my host machines I never get full 240 points per hour. usually a lot less. Its in the VM's that I get close to ~240.

    It uses a tiny amount of bandwith.

    Ok, so I'm over in the GPUGrid section and Skycran's Avatar got me to come check this out... After reading a bit I think this is kinda cool.

    Is there really any reason not to have this?
    Just checking, but it won't compete with GPUGrid or WCG right?
    And is there any reason not to set bitrate to max and time between to min?
    How do laptops changing connections affect this program?

    I'll be looking into this some more, but thanks for any help!

    No reason not to have this.
    It uses Zero CPU. No competition with other projects.
    No reason not to set it to max.
    Laptops are fine with changing connection. it'll auto recognise the default adapter as it connects.

    Ok, so I went to install this (using windows 7) and it doesn't work. It says I need the Java JRE, but I followed the link from the webpage and downloaded that from java sun. Anyone know what's going on?

    Well it needs at least JRE 1.6 so make sure its the correct one.

    Otis, glad to see that my avatar got some others out there diming....

    its a great lil program that they have going, read up on some of the other posts on the section to get a good undersanding of all the things you can do with dimes to help increase your production

    im not sure what kind of net conection you have, but be careful if you dont have and unlimited plan,
    Its not overkill if it works.

    Well if he's going to be running one or two clients it won't matter what plan he has.

    Ok thanks guys! I'm loading update 16 Gamekiller. Hope that works.

    And as far as the net connection- I have 250GB per month. I don't see this going over that? (I'll have 3 computers running it) But then when I return to college in a week I'll be limited to 5GB/week. So I might have to watch that as two of the 3 computers will be coming with me. Do you think that will be much of a problem?

    You should be fine with only 3.. by a long shot I'd guess.
