There are a couple of programs such as PcRdist (sp?) that will automatically rebuild the system after a certain amount of time has expired and the machine is restarted/shutdown.

Looks like voxtreme is hosted by this company. http://www.vdi.net/network_information.html

http://www.ecost.com/ecost/shop/detail.asp?dpno=208806 Only downside is it is the first gen model that can't burn DVD+R.

Quite a few have moved on to Genome@home, I have no idea what's happening with UD, but no secret commitee meetings that I know of :P

I often sit over 256MB with the dual XP 1.47GHz, but I haven't really gone over 512MB. Time for me to pull out the POS crucial dimm and get pure Nanya CL2 action happening :)

All is not lost CougTek :)

Very interesting. So it uses a floppy power connector for power? It would be nice to escape IDE cable limits for my optical drives.

I haven't got SETI installed anymore, but I think I was getting about 3.5-4 hours per 2 work units (running 2 instances). But that was with a random work unit so who knows. Still, that is very impressive performance Bill :) 1.4 hours per WU is awesome. Looks like SETI really shines with SMT.

4 instances? How does that affect performance compared to 2 instances? I find 2 instances of SETI on a dual takes slightly longer than 2 instances on 2 sepereate machines (bus contention I guess?)

OK Buck, I'm going in to replace one of the Deltas with a y.s tech 27 cfm fan I have lying around. Hope I don't crack the core in the process :o I didn't buy these HSF's, they are just what the retailer bundled with the cpu's.

Dual 7000 rpm Deltas means I can't hear much else.

I think this thread is in bad taste, I know I would be pissed if I read something like this about me.

Yeah they do have some stringent limits on the shared plans. But I guess the upside is that stability and availability is very good, especially compared to some hosting services I've seen (nice and cheap, but terrible performance).

Well according to that tool it isn't capable of burning CD-RW! It would be interesting to find out one way or the other.

I notice they limit you to 5 databases of 20MB each on the shared plans. Is it possible to use multiple DB's to circumvent the 20MB limit?

The problem with CD-RW is that the speeds were slow at 4x originally, plus you have to put DirectCD or InCD or some sort of software to allow you to drag and drop. Not to mention the time wastage involved in formatting. With Mt Rainier, the OS should see it straight away, and you can drag and...

Ahh, you forget the 40X LiteOn drive with Mt Ranier CougTek :) http://www.googlegear.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=331605 $127 but the fastest doesn't come ultra cheap.

http://www.googlegear.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=331003 Sony 24x10x40x IDE burner for $86.30+shipping. I have one of these works great.

Everyone needs a dual AMD machine :)

LOL, sorry that's from 2 machines. A dual XP 1.47 GHz and an Athlon4 @ 1GHz.

3.93 GHz of Athlon power is good for 160 work units per day :)

I only created the team number, took me 30 secs. All glory to CougTek! :mrgrn: I just wish I could crunch for the team, unfortunately I am committed elsewhere.

Your name will appear once you submit your first result. The stats are updated every 3 hours or so, but it may take upto 12 hours for a returned unit to show up in the stats (they do a lot of checking for cheating and duplicate results).

If they had moved you onto another server, wouldn't they have had to give you updated login details?

Does seem rather slow to me, even on dial-up. Certainly that new snap that existed when the site was first created is long gone. 80% sounds like pretty high utilisation for a web server.

Some have already tried Tony. People were building up totals of millions. Fortunately the cheaters were discovered and their results were stripped away from them :) They don't do genome anymore.

I just get sick of some of the crap they put us thru. As a matter of fact, I am back crunching genome@home, distributedfolding seems even worse in terms of bandwidth utilisation (not good on my dial up dl limited account). Buck, the genome results can be found here...

our lives....

You may want to check with Prof.Wizard, I believe he has the team details for Folding@home.

Uhmmm, Clocker, that team I created is for Genome@home. I don't think the teams are interchangeable with Folding@home (tho both projects are run by the same incompetents). I have switched over to distributed folding. http://www.distributedfolding.org/index.html

Happy Birthday James! All downhill from here, or so i've heard :P

The reason they don't post that spec is because all that it required is the lowest f-stop number possible. There is no "advantage" in posting a higher number.

If you get very drunk and mistake your PCI cards for rungs on a step ladder they can come in very handy ;)

I used an Eheim canister filter when I had a fish tank.

Hehe, I have a Coolpix 995 with 1GB Microdrive Mercutio :p Nothing like being able to take 650 photos whilst shooting in Auckland and still having a couple of hundred in reserve :) Tony, most cameras these days are USB mass storage devices, and appear as another removable drive when plugged...

Flagreen :)

There are generic memory sticks? Sure you aren't thinking of CompactFlash or similar?

"A former Northern Territory Labor Government staffer has admitted having sex in the chamber of Parliament House in Darwin." http://abc.net.au/news/newsitems/s503207.htm "Video cameras record some of the ingress and egress from the main entrance and the rear entrance," he said. Beautiful...

Which camera did you get Tony? BTW did you see the disgrace of WankerCarey this morning? Something about "thou shalt not covet thy best mate's wife" :o

Did you install the drivers off the CD? If I recall there was an AGP patch included in there somewhere. Oh and those AOpen power supplies are fantastic, can't recommend them highly enough.

LOL, true Tony, I just noticed it too. No biggie, I can spend 30 mins perusing other web sites, whilst waiting for the return of SR.net.

I've had no problems with my 2460 and a Geforce2MX card, and presently an ATI Radeon 7500 AIW. I would say that it's either the PSU or the mobo from that description. Perhaps the last resort before sending it away would be to try upgrading to the latest BIOS (1.04)?

Shat and spat are sort of the same as well.

Hmm, win2k Advanced Server has it's uses after all ......

O&O won't defrag >4K NTFS clusters in win2k, I believe it will in winXP. Unfortunately we have to risk SpeedDisk to get the job done :(

NTFS?

Is that with XP or win2k CougTek?

One thing I've found that kills fish pretty quick is overfeeding. A little really goes a long way. I believe the rule of thumb is give them as much as they will eat in 5 mins and no more.

Would be futile Tony, wouldn't even touch the sides of those liberal arts nancy boys.
