So, for me, you mean... continue on with business as usual?
Next week should be solid for me. I'm on vacation next week so I should be able to keep things rocking 24/7 (no down time if a rig craps out while I'm at work).

Assembly on a new Dedicated Folder will happen next weekend during the holiday break!
OCZ 8800GTX is being replaced by OCZ with a NEW unnamed brand 8800GTX should be here Mon.
This should bring me back up to the 10K PPD level

First off try backing the OC down on the GSO's!
With the newer WU's I had to back my OC down in order to even get a full run of a WU!
Then again, if its artifacting I would look to a hardware problem!

well, it worked through the night, so locking up is no longer an issue(lowered the C2D to 3.45GHz, and shaders by 40MHz), but it doesnt change the fact that i can't run SMP, and am only on one GPU(i'm almost positive that reinstalling XP would fix it as i accidentally have two installs on one partition, BUT this way i can play DiRT over break, as i don't have the CD to install it again, and the latest patch i had makes it run without it, its complicated, but i can play, and thats what i really care about)

Great! It would be a shame to end the year on a whimper. We have made good progress this year and I know next year will be even better! Fold on!

I'm going to start folding for LR but your torrent file is corrupt according to transmission (linux torrent client)

If you have a dual or quad core just follow
matt's guide. You will get better performance running the smp client in linux and all martini's torrent has is a virtual machine for better performance in windows. Just scroll down to the part about installing in linux.

wow, our avg is down big time, now teams are actually gaining on us again, our user avg PPD is down almost 1k, and our #20 producer is only 3800PPD, when the #20 was once 5300 a few weeks ago, we are still gaining on teams more than we are losing, but we can do much better than this

Good news is that right now I'm actually getting the good 480 pt units. I just hope they hold out for a while.

i don't think i've seen a good 'ol 480pt unit in a while, BUT i put my second GSO in another computer folding 24/7(regardless of gaming, as that computer isn't doing anything aside from folding now, it's unused because my rig is the main PC right now), i have two clients on my 2GHz laptop going 24/7, and my rig running two clients and a GPU a lot of the time, last 24 Hrs: 7500pts, and i didn't have either computer hooked up for a little while right before the midnight update, and for like an hour after, so it's looking decent for the rest of break
we were looking good from the 22nd to the 25th, but we're falling off again, it's too bad a bunch of our big folders are at 0ppd (bwall, joe, and a few at a lot lower ppd than normal) hope you guys get back in it soon! (though you have reasons of course)
