What NIC were/are you using? Also, are you using registered DDR?

Don't mind if I do Tony I too have experienced the shitty quality control of coolpc, half complete orders seem to be their particular type of brand image?

Yup, that has the same effect :)

Yeah they were using IBM 75GXP's but they swapped all of them out (70+) after they started failing at a disturbing rate, the story is still in the support files somewhere.

Which account did you go for? I've got about 5 domains on my account, some virtual and some parked on other domains.

I can recommend www.pair.com Not the cheapest, but very fast and very reliable.

To change your client settings to the new team number, delete a file called ghclient.cfg in your genome directory. When you next run the client it will ask you for the setup details again and you can input the team number.

OK I created a Genome@Home team called StorageForum_net. Only underscores are allowed so no dot was possible. Team number is 678294834. Happy Crunching!

Not in Australia :( I believe Dingo is shutting down because it couldn't keep up with it's generous dl limit (compared to competitors)

I crunch for Overclockers-Network :p I don't think there is an SR genome team, perhaps you could create one and post the team number?

I believe Lite-On now have a 40x CD-RW burner available. :o

LOL, certainly the drive gets very warm, I'll put it up the top of my AOpen tower, and hook up the 2*80mm fans adjacent to it.

I think Meroveus was from Tasmania? But I don't think he was doing a PhD, he was doing a Bachelor of Science or somesuch?

Ok, I have now entered the world of SCSI. Got the Tekram U3D, which ended up being a 5V version (which will work fine in the 64bit slots of the Tyan TigerMP). Hooked up the x15 and everything is running smoothly. The true test of speed will occur when I plug it into the dual Athlon, until then...

I think the name began with M?

Definitely wasn't me Cliptin, I can't stand the stuff. When I say light beer, I am reffering to low alchohol beer, not a light body. Try some Carlton Crownies, or James Boags Premium if you can get a hold of them (Australian beers)

Stanford's Genome@home :mrgrn:

It doesn't mention 3.3V anywhere on the site, but reports are that they are producing 3.3V compatible cards now. Notice they also state max transfer rate of 266 MB/sec at 64bit/66MHz as well! I don't think they upgrade their website very often.

I ended up ordering from the Tekram online store, at least that way I can be sure of getting a 3.3V version. The LSI's are cheap, but once I included the price of cables/terminators the Tekram was better value. I'll give it a spin on Friday prob.

Hmm, I'm sure I replied to this yesterday? I will bring it back if I have enough room in the bag. I will also need a 120V converter, MS in it's infinite wisdom decided not to make it dual voltage.

Not a problem Bill, as long as it isn't a large encyclopeadia set or somesuch ;) I can post it to Brother Tony when I get back - if James doesn't want me to bring back a Ghettoblaster :p

I'll be here for another 2 weeks, email me if you want me to bring anything back. Got an X-Box last night, addicted to Halo now.... *drool runs from mouth*

Well, that goes without saying when you delete partitions.

Not yet, I think i'll order one from the Tekram store, the LSI cards look good but I don't think they come with cables/terminators? If only the LSI U320 cards were available for sale......

Genome@home would be a better option Prof, as it allows dial up users to cache work for days/weeks before connecting and uploading results/dl'ing new work. http://genomeathome.stanford.edu/

Sorry James, I was going to email you and see if you wanted anything brought back but I didn't have your email addy on the laptop. What's an Audiotron? DVD players for $75 here, time to go shopping. Purely a pleasure trip :)

Light beer, bah! This Molsons is quite drinkable tho.

You can revert back to a basic disk but you will first need to delete all the dynamic partitions. Then right click the drive in Disk Management and click on Revert to Basic.

I'm out near Rochester, NY. I've only sampled the Molsons Canajan beer, too many bad memories of Bud to venture too far. But if anyone can recommend a good US beer that's available in the supermarche that would be great (an oxymoron?). And flagreen is quite correct, within easy driving distance...

Just [icked up some 101 proof Wild Turkey, it's going to be a big weekend (they didn't ask for ID either!) This 21 drinking age just doesn't make any sense to me (I'm 24 BTW if anyones wondering). This 1 l;itre bottle thing you have going is nice tho, and beer at the supermarket! Went into a...

Thanks Bill, I emailed Hypermicro a couple of weeks ago and unfortunately they only had the 5V versions in stock. I need to see what this X15 will do to this sluggish Pentium 233 I am using at the moment :mrgrn: I don't think anything can speed up AOLHell!

Thanks for your suggestions in advance, Pradeep

The reason I ask is because the client I run (genome@home) can use a different seed each time it processes a work unit, enabling the client to be run without a permanent net connection, and allowing me to leave it unattended for a few weeks, then dump the cache when I want to.

There is no guaranteed right to free speech in Australia, and even the Bill of Rights is regularly used as toilet paper by the Judiciary here.

Good to see you back Clocker. Is the client capable of caching work and recrunching it's existing work if it can't find a Net connection?

Oh and you can use any number of free software firewalls, I'm using Zone Alarm. http://download.cnet.com/downloads/0-10105-108-57636.html?tag=upd

Tony, so the NT4 box is connected to the Athlon which has a modem? What is the modem Athlon running as an OS? The easiest way I could think if you were running some type of windows would be to enable ICS (internet connection sharing) on the modem box, then when you open up a browser etc on any...

Excellent, more smilies the better Doug. :bow:

I agree completely Tony. It's absolutely crazy that the designation of certain domain names can be left to a one-man volunteer who seems to be rather scewed in the head as well. Imagine if he'd gone on a 6 month holiday whilst still in control! It just kills confidence by consumers.

http://www.wired.com/news/politics/0,1283,48973,00.html Actually I believe control of the .au domain space has been taken away from MelbourneIT (perhaps precipitating it's plunging share price) and given to auDA? I'm sure James would know more about it. Certainly the very high costs of...

I believe AMD are still using 200mm wafers. RE: Toms hardware pic, you can't link to it directly. You are seeing it because it is in your browser cache.

Only if you keep buying X15's Tony ;)

Pradeep: No more guns for special stuff Is that a single stack and double stack 1911 style? Cause single stack won't get you far in IPSC. Need to get to at least 13 rounds per clip to be competitive, even then most are moving to .40 S&W for more capacity (16).

Maybe some kind of wireless line-of-sight connection straight from the Optus building? :mrgrn:

The only real option you have is to switch to Optus, and that would entail moving house/apartment if you are not within cable reach. Or moving back to good old dial up :)

I think the solution is clear to all of us. Doug accidentally slips his hand off the mouse whilst in the admin control panel, causing CougTek's account to be temporarily suspended, which by an incredible coincidence occurs at the same time as posts 980-1000 of Apology to China. :D
