Haley Joel Osment: I see meat people! :lol:

Just about sums THG up really--fading into oblivion :wink:

Meh! Beast, best, whatever...

Anything that looks like a snail is not getting a place beside my desk. I own a LL PC-60, but... Lord Farquad said it beast LF: What's that? It's hideous. Shrek: Well, that's not very nice. [looks at case] Shrek: It's just a PC. LF: Indeed... Knights new plan. The one that trashes the...

Needless to say, my power bill should be "interesting" Maybe I should upgrade the three slow machine to one X2, they do run cool and don't sip much juice... :mrgrn:

Pentium M has the SSE2 advantage. Conroe--Desktop Pentium M based chip should be impressive @ folding. 'Cause I've gone mad silly! :bstd: Don't feel bad, it's taking me the following to amass the points--all are on 24/7 X2 3800+ @ 4200+ (2.2GHz) 2 instances of folding S754 2800+ @ 2.25GHz...

Everybody keeps saying that Merom/Conroe/Woodcrest is Intel's saviour--and given some of the sources that I have read, this could very well be a very good chip. But it uses a shared cache/multiple thread design a lá P4, so it may suffer from the same server workload issue. Time will tell I guess.

No. But maybe. AMD have trumped Intel two months running in retail in the U.S.--the first month by little, the second by a lot. And retail maybe the only growth sector left--driven by gamers and upgrades. Dell's earnings have been flat for some time, so they may see this as an unconquered...

I'll have to agree with Tannin and Bozo on this one. ASUS have always been overpriced AFAICT, but since the P4, and maybe even the late P!!!, their defect rates (according to fora I frequent), seems to have gone up. From what I see, when they work, they work well. When they don't--welcome to...

Yeah it does, but upside down. we have to stand on our heads to read them properly :)

:lol: CougTek And Gilbo, you hit the nail on the head. Intel is faster at folding, but AMD is more reliable. :)

Thank you Mark. I also found out that you can SSH into a Smoothie and transfer the Linux console client. By the looks of things, it will take 7 days to complete a WU, but as the Smoothie is always on... </bill goes folding mad> :rofl Look out Greg, you're first on my hit list :mrgrn:

Just fired up Eudora and got the message.

Offhand, pick one of the major Linux distros, they all have email servers. If it's a 100Mb network, then any old box from the last 5 or 6 years will be able to saturate the network link. If the email server is set up, then they should be able to email to their hearts content. Solution is...

Garlic Press!? Sony are Vampires!? :D

Yes, SmoothWall is a Linux app. Sorry for jumping around. My comment was in reference to a previous post about whether it was worthwhile using a P!!!-600.

Hunting around the F@H forums, the way to do this on a Win98SE machine is to go to the Advanced tab (Configuration), select the Genome@home option from Client Type and check the "upload in batches" checkbox? Is this correct?

larger cases and L3 cache quad-core K8 in 2007 new core (K10??) in 2007 Pacifica (virtualisation) 50% than Vanderpool (Intel virtualisation) get it all here: http://www.planet3dnow.de/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=243845

Ahh, but is there a folding client for OS/2? :lol:

How do you know how many points you do a day (as a a team)?

I have started folding with my X2 and P!!! for team 10047. I'll bring the S754 online sometime in the next week. Now if I could run the linux client on my SmoothWall box... But maybe I should upgrade it from the P2 400 to the Athlon XP 1600+ I have lying around :D

Does any file require write permissions? Have you checked case sensitivity--its a common mistake made by primarily Windows users, but easily overlooked.

I thought there was some controversy over the usage of the folding client--being used for something other than cancer or some such. Or was this to do with another distributed computing project? Would a P!!! 600 be of any use? It's my DOS games box and sits idle. Once I get a cable out to the...

My bad. I thought the data was at least normalised for air-miles etc to take into account the discrepancies between say a 727 and 767. Astute comments.

I stand corrected, and bow to your superior wisdom sensei. Was it ever established why he (the pilot) did this?

The one I was referring to was the June '88 A320 crash. Is this the one you mean? At least here: http://www.aviationexplorer.com/a320_facts.htm & here: http://catless.ncl.ac.uk/Risks/7.11.html#subj3 seem to imply that something fishy went on with the flight data recorder. The "official" cause...

This sounds like the Processor affinity bug. This patch may be of interest http://www.storageforum.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5121 My understanding is this patch forces processor affinity. Maybe you could try it out?

Good on the hearsay it appears from here: http://www.airsafe.com/events/models/rate_mod.htm Chances of dieing in an Airbus A320 is roughly the same as in a Boeinn 757 or 767 or DC10 You are far more likely to die in a Boeing 727/737/747 or DC9 From here...

Solved. Well the problem went away. I re-installed from scratch--and was super careful with my installation/driver install. I did this after running up the X2. After a couple of weeks, I tried overclocking again and have the system running at 2.25GHz (250MHz FSB) for about four weeks now...

total n00b, what's QMD? Quebéc Mass Destruction? Coug! is not gonna like that!

:lol: I thought there was some controversy over the usage of the folding client--being used for something other than cancer or some such. Or was this to do with another distributed computing project? Maybe I should put my S754, X2 and P!!! to use...

BTW, have you been using that nick long? It looks familiar.

Welcome, your Majesty. Static, signal to noise--there are lots of euphemisms, but yes, they all mean lots of "crap" posts. You don't get much of that here. And even better, the quality of what is posted--when a serious subject is broached ;) --is impressive. That doesn't mean there aren't...

If you saturate your upstream bandwidth, your browsing will grind to a halt even if you have plenty of download bandwidth to play with. If you can throttle/set the upload bandwidth, you should. If your on cable/ADSL, then try 75% of max. and see how you go.

48-bit LAB http://www.storageforum.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2601 I also purchased a SP2504C recently. A fraction faster than a P80, about the same low low noise levels. What's not to like?

I don't think this is a good idea. After the kids started using their DVD's for skates, I invested in a burner and now make copies. The kids play the copies and the originals are stored where they can't get them. But here's what I've noticed. The copies fail after six or eight months. I...

I made reference to the slippage of K10 a couple of posts ago. Looks like it has more than slipped. K10 is dead http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=27421 This is not good news for AMD. Long live K8L. Thsi would explain AMD's slippage on 65nm as well. The new core would have to be designed...

Socket M2--940 pins Uses a reference clock of 333MHz (currently 200 in 939). Uses DDR2 667. 2 x 333. HT clock remains at 1000MHz--it's double data rate as well remember. The memory controller can work with DDR2-800--with a reference clock of 400MHz. MC is ready for DDR3...

You assertion that AMD uses IBM does not stand up to Coug's linked article, and many more that I have read on the AMD/IBM development agreement in EETimes, DigiTimes, News.com, The Inquirer, The Register and others. You made an assertion about why NVIDIA moved its business--and your assertion...

Thanks Coug. I did read it, but had forgotten.

AMD doesn't use IBM. AMD licensed the technology. AMD does their own manufacturing. AMD and IBM signed a joint development partnership for process tech at the 90, 65 and 42nm nodes. There is a world of difference My understanding of the agreement between NVIDIA and IBM is that NVIDIA paid...

http://www.sysinternals.com/blog/2005/10/sony-rootkits-and-digital-rights.html All parts of DRM--should be cropping up on a system near you soon

So? Intel were first to 90 by a long shot, but power consumption was so bad that they only released 2.4GHz Celerons (lower FSB, 2/3rds frequency of top end chip, less cache etc.)--and these were pushing the edge of their platform power envelope. The cynic in me says the reason was that the...

I would have to disagree with both of these statements--to a lesser or greater extent. Horses for courses as the saying goes. Intel gets great speeds out of bulk Si, but for various reasons they are behind the curve in more advanced processes. Witness their transistion to Cu. They were a...

Yeah, they're the spirits of tortured and deceased SysAdmins--still at their posts! :lol:

Don't you mean Seagate door stops? 3/22 is much worse than 7/150. ;) Bozo, could the problem be environmental?

See my post above--your machine still sounds like it is asserting #THERMTRIP. Raise this setting in your BIOS and monitor temps. If your machine does not shut down, there's your answer. Goop--RadioShack, Tandy, electronics hobby store should have it. Apply a thin layer--more is not good A...

A lot of new machines incorporate a thermal trip in the BIOS, if the CPU reports it is too hot, the machoine amy either throttle or shut down--sometimes accompanied by an alarm. In the BIOS, have a look at the Power Management/PC Health or similar menus. You can normally raise the temp at...
