Who wants to cure disease for team 36362?

[Sparky]

BCHurricane89. Sorry to hear about your heart disease Hopefully a cure is found soon, either through folding@home or through some other channel.

For information, check out http://folding.stanford.edu
For setup, in my sig is a link to how to get the CPU client running (which is the client you'd want to run).

[firefox > IE]

I would like to start folding for this team, however, I ws previously folding for Overclock.net, and I am using teh WIndows console version of F@H. How do I change settings?

[Sparky]

Hi firefox > IE
I agree with your username

Right click on My Computer, select Manage. Go to Services and Applications, select services, and find FAH@C:etc.etc. in the list, select it, then hit Stop the service. Leave this window open, and put in "C:\FAH\FAH504-Console.exe" -configonly in the run command. Of course if you have FAH located someplace else than C:\FAH then put the right location in. Use the same settings you have been, except put in 36362 for the team number. Once you do that, go back to the computer management window and hit Start this service and from here on out you'll be crunching for XS

Hope this is what you needed and is helpful

Hello, I signed up on the website a while ago, and read about folding, and how it can help cure disease. I didnt think much of it, until recently I was diagnosed with a rare form of heart disease, which has no cure at the moment. I dont know if this folding can help find a cure for that, but maybe it can find cure's for other needy children.

I think that's the right attitude. I have a young son with type 1 diabetes and there's no cure for that yet, they're not even sure of the cause (this is a different disease than the more common type 2 condition which can be related to diet). I just found out about folding. The Stanford project is not specifically working on diabetes but if it helps any kid, it's worth it. Plus, I figure the more science learns about the way the body works, the better the outlook for all diseases. Take care of yourself man!

just joined up. or do i have to run it by you guys first?
thx

[Sparky]

No need to clear it with any of us, we never turn anyone away We've had some who joined and crunched for quite a while before we even heard a peep out of them.

I see a new name in our top 20 producers list, "wk127.0.0.1" come on out and say hi

Hi! I have an old P4 computer and I would like to use it for folding. The sistem is stable, but isn't passing the prime torture test (round error). Can I fold without problems or my results will be with errors?

[Sparky]

Hmm if it isn't prime stable, it might not work too well to fold on. Long-term folding tends to be more intensive over the long run than prime is. Is it overclocked at all? RAM check out OK? I would try and get it prime stable before folding myself.

[sergiu]

It is at default setting but undervolted at 1.125V because it is used in a silent pc. It passes prime test only if it is overvolted from 1.525 to 1.5875 or 1.6. Except prime, sistem is 100% stable (no reboots for days, even with s&m). I'm worring for folding accuracy not for sistem stability.

[Sparky]

Well yes, that's what I meant, if the system isn't fully prime stable (no errors) it probably will have inaccuracies in the folding. What you could do is try it, monitoring it closely. If it causes an EUE (Early_Unit_End) then you'll need to stabilize it.

[sergiu]

I am running my system for almost 5 days and FAH client didn't gave any errors (there are no errors reported in log file). Should I declare it stable for this kind of work?

[Sparky]

Sure thing, keep going!

Sure mate keep it going !!! I dropped abbit from 100% CPU usage to 90% to put a bit less stress on all components and the electricity bill :p

[cnumartyr]

Just installed it on the new computer and got it running. Installing it on the old one now as well.

Edit: Old one has been folding for a while.. just added it to the team along with the new one.

new guy sounding off - 2 C2D systems going so far (4GHz & 3.2GHz) should I get ATI cards just for the GPU utilized F@H ability?

Trying to make a sig at liquid ninjas but I am having trouble - can someone halep me to make a graphic sig (image cropped from a XS wallpaper that someone posted ->

sorry but I just need a bit o' help here as I am new to this and if I stepped on toes just tell me and I will remove the image.

If you want maximum pointage go for two SMP clients, one on each PC. Or if you want maximum variety, go for 1 SMP client on one PC, an X1950 series card for the second PC to run the GPU client on, and one standard CPU client on the other CPU core of that second PC (the GPU client uses one CPU core to monitor and keep track of stuff). Up to you, and I would be happy to help you with any setup questions you may have

AFAIK you aren't stepping on any toes maxing your own sig. Are you trying to put your system specs in it or the F@H stats? If the system specs, I can help you with that. For F@H stats, I don't know how to make those appear on a custom background image, maybe someone else does.

[sc00p]

Welcome to the team The Goat Eater... I'm afraid there's no easy way to extract that image to be a background for the stats.
I looked Liquid Ninjas option for a sig once (long time ago) and eventually went with teh original one: EOC that is

And I would guess it's more convenient to fold only SMP clients without GPU client on top of that. Not sure about it... DAK1640 should be able to illuminate this if you're still interested...

Of course: on board sergiu & cnumartyr too :cheers:

[sc00p]

Just find out about this: http://www.dynasig.net/howitworks.php ... haven't tried it yet (obviously), but it seems this ain't either have an option to use fully customized background image

[(+[ ]:)]

i have already installed folding. and i am running it know perfectly but how do i join team 36362.

[Don_Dan]

Have you already gone through the set-up where you could enter your name? There should be an option for a team number.

[Sparky]

(+[], (that is a unique username ) Are you running the text console client or a GUI client? For the console client, run the .exe with a -configonly flag on it and in there it asks what team number to use. For the GUI, um... heh I haven't used it for so long I forget how exactly it is in the settings somewhere...

[LemniaAlsa]

Just wanted to let you guys know...I'm folding for you guys :]

I have a dual core...and I was reading that in order to take advantage of both cores, I have to run the program twice. I have F@H installed in two different directories but I still can't get two clients to run at the same time. Any suggestions?

Welcome to the team LemniaAlsa

You are probably trying that with the GUI client?
You'll have to install it as a service when you want to run multiple instances. This guide will get you running in no time
You could also install the SMP client so you can check that one out too.
