Right now I don't think there is enough news to warrant having ANY 'categories'. It just adds unneeded complication until to new articles are so numerous that we need some categorization system. C

huh? Good work guys. Maybe the board is just fine. Either way, I don't have a CPU for it.... C

Here the beauty is:

67.) When you start a defrag session, you like to watch it progress.

Nope. i don't think so based on what I've read at their forums. You need to run the G@H client if you want to have a -nonet option.... C

Guys- I'm having some trouble with this CPU mobo combindation that I have (see http://www.storageforum.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=789) . It is a good possiblity that just the BIOS on the mobo needs to be replaced (this is cheap, just go to www.badflash.com) but I don't want to dick around with...

Actually, I have more devious plans for this new crunching box I'm building. More to come early this week. Clocker's thinking that a 300A @ 504 (what that CPU used to be good for) is not good enough for team Storageforum.net to maintain momentum..... I will donate this mobo and CPU to...

I always thought that the battery really isn't THAT important. I mean, if I'm willing to reset all the BIOS settings and the clock/date/time every time I cold-boot the machine, I don't even really need a CMOS battery. Isn't that correct? Doesn't the CMOS battery just let the system save the...

So I need a new BIOS chip & battery, Mark? C

Coug- I read somewhere in the forums above that you can get F@H credits for completing G@H units. Thus, you might want to use our F@H team number for that machine. I'm not sure if you have to be using the F@H3 client to be able to do that though... C

I think it is really great to be able to put faces with names. SF feels different already! C

Oh yeah, Congrats James! I already have cable so I'm all set. DOes that mean you will pay my monthly access fee? Thanks! C

Just so you know....James promised high speed (1mb+) internet access to all SF members as a part of his election campaign promise. Feel free to contact James regarding setting up an appointment to have your cable/dsl installed. They do weekends too so don't worry if you are too busy during the...

I thought the only problem I'd run into as a result of a dead battery is that the BIOS won't maintain settings or keep proper time? It should still post and identify some default type of CPU I believe...right? C

I had to delete old in-process work units to get both my processes to work properly with beta7. You have to go into the advanced options of the cmd line client to set your client preference (G@H, F@H, or No Pref). C

Yes. One of my CPUs has done the same thing. Interesting indeed! C

I can't tell you because I can't get into the BIOS. Believe it or not, there are not jumpers on this ECS mobo except to set some power-on features and other non-CPU related stuff... C :-(

Ah ha! Thanks for the tip. I didn't think I had any RAM to test this with but I just remembered my i801e system has some nice Mushkin in it. THe RAM I had actually WAS bad. Thanks for the tip. I THe system now gets to the screen where it identifies the CPU. unfortunately, it says the...

Hmmm.. I cleared CMOS but no dice. Thanks for the suggestion though... C

Here's me...about a month ago when Shan and I went up to Mackinac Island for a long weekend. It was unseasonably cool but a nice time nonetheless... Clocker

I'm building a system of spare parts. It is a BX board with an Award BIOS. Slot One (ECS) with Celeron 300A. System does not post right now. When I power it up, all I get is a repetitive long slow beep. Each beep lasts about 2-3 seconds and it goes on continuously with about 1 second in...

Whoops. I just looked at the manual for the board I'm using. It's a BX board (ECS P6BX-A+) and, apparently, the largest size DIMM it will accept is 128MB. 256MB may work I'm guessing but I'm pretty sure 512MB won't. Either way, I want PC133 just so I can use it in some other system down the...

Nobody has any old PC133 laying around?! C

I'm a little late but...CONGRATS JAKE! C

LOL. I never noticed! I gues I haven't been really reading his posts in a while. Sorry bout that G-MAN! C

Welcome Dozer! Keep up the good work!! C

Re: HMMMM, bit of a flap going on around here??? wtf is that about?

Ahemmmmm sure. How much $ though?

I'm in USA. I'm looking for a good deal. It's a spare parts box I'm putting together for SF Folding @ Home. Clocker

I don't mean to change the direction but I think Sony sucks. It's just one experience I know, but I just had to pay $180 to have my 6 year old 27" Trinitron repaired. I expect more than 6 years of light service (hell, I use my PC monitor more) from a TV I paid a nice price premium for. Now...

Rad- I was just messin' with ya! This looks like one of the best prices you will find on an inexpensive JVC Unit (although it is from worst-buy): http://www.bestbuy.com/detail.asp?e=11099052&m=1&cat=31&scat=243 I've had good luck with my JVC VCR. No problems with it. It is just a basic VCR...

Or is Goog an old format like beta or something?

Rad- The Goog brand of VCRs might be difficult to find. Did you have a price range in mind? C

None taken, PW. You're just making me wonder why that thought would enter your mind? :lol:

Cool. Make that 3001-4501 visits per day now... Check out my new toys below! :-) The mixture of IDE and SCSI kinda sounds familiar, doesn't it? C

So what's new and great at radified.com, Radboy? C

I'd try it if I could but I can't on my sytem so somebody please try it. Maybe comparing two Protein As or something?

Wow! Where do you get that kind of hardware? Go SF! C

I'm not sure...I'm more or less asking. But what do you think of this? If you can increase your CPU speed AFTER a work unit is started (i.e. after the system is benchmarked for the unit) wouldn't you get more points per work unit? I think you are awarded points based on how fast you finish a...

THe closer we get to teh top, the harder we will have to work! Any ideas how we can get more team members? This is a start but I doubt it will be fruitful: http://forum.folding-community.org/viewtopic.php?t=746 Ideas?? C

Lol. That didn't last long!! Watch your back, eViL Handruin! C

I would not buy something that old if the person using it was basing their livelyhood on it's productivity. Maybe if you replaced the PS and the HDD, but then it would probably be cost prohibitive. Maybe a lower level AthlonXP system with a SCSI drive and inexpensive controller (I believe they...

Searching around on the net (actually google news search) I have found about 10C is a fairly common difference...at least for the MPX. If these were slot CPUs I would not hesitate to switch them just to see the difference but it is a PITA to swap these socketed CPUs... C

At the rate we're producing work units, it looks like we're poised to eventually be in 26th place or so... C

I've noticed when it is down but didn't mention anything. I've just come to accept it I guess. Would you like us to make some noise (IM or something) to let you know when it is down? C

BTW: While folding my cold CPU (by the memory) sits at about 42C while the hotter CPU (right above the AGP card) hovers around 53C... C

I agree pradeep. My MPX board is supposed to accept unbuffered DDR in the first two slots but I could not get it to boot unless I had only one stick of Crucial unbuffered DDR installed. Even at that, I would get blue-screens all the time. After getting the Kingston registered memory, this...
