It doesn't seem to fold properly. He's using 175.19 drivers I believe. I'm using the same drivers and I'm not having any problems. He's folding on a factory overclocked 8800GTS 640MB.

Is remote desktop being used or is someone else using a profile on the computer? User switching will cause problems.

He said that he has only one user account. Btw, this is Windows XP.

Something got corrupt. Delete all temp. files and reboot. Start over again. Remember that all this is Beta. It's all part of the learning process. Not your fault, we just need to go with to flow. Have some understanding that Beta is not perferct.

That's what I thought, but I was wondering if the drivers would have an effect on this as well. He's using 175.19, which I believe is "old" compared to the latest 178.13.

His RAM might've been under-volted as well, so that might've been the cause of the problem. Right now, his RAM is getting 2V instead of the original 1.8V.

[vbironchef]

I have been reading posts from F@H and they say it is important that your rig is stable. Go from there. Most important is that your graphic card is stable. No need to overclock if it won't fold. Fold on

[vbironchef]

Just make sure that you have one core folding just for GPU2. I know that it will work if you don't set the affinity setting, but it works best when you do.

He doesn't have his CPU folding. Too lazy to set it up

Ya his rig is all stock except for the factory overclocked 8800GTS. I think the culprit is either the "old" drivers or the Vdimm. Let's hope it'll fold properly for the rest of the night.

Is it normal for him to take around 2 min and 45s to complete 1%? I know that different WU have different speeds, but my 9600GT completes 1% in around 1 min and 50s.
