A week long challenge

[kenc51]

then mabie ill actually have ppd, instead of points per month, lol
is it an AGP board by any chance?

PCIe
Asus A8R32-MVP Deluxe
http://uk.asus.com/products.aspx?l1=3&l2=15&l3=268
I'll include a NV 7100GS PCIe card

I'll send you a PM in a few weeks, I can send it to you @ the end of the month. Should be something nice for after x-mas.
Just remember, I wanna see some WU's folded for LR from you!

[skier]

OH YEAH!!! do you want shipping+, or just folding? i think ill leave that in my basement(i cant sleep with a computer on, and its always pretty cold down there no matter the season) now to pick up a cheap HDD and PSU (fingers still crossed for the 1KW contest ) because none of the PSUs i have have PCIe connectors, which i assume that needs. yeah, ill just go down every once and a while to see how far it is in the WU and get online, did i forget to add,

[martini161]

no, you dont need a new psu, you can pick up a molex to pcie connector and they come with most pcie cards

No shipping, just WU's for as long as possible.
You have embraced the ethos of LR and it's the least I can do to say thank you!

I have no use for it, so it may as well go to someone who will appreciate it

There is a newer Toshiba laptop sitting at the house doing nothing, but it's my son's friends. I'll make a move on that machine if given the OK.

The Toshiba is now folding away! All 1.6Ghz of it.

I wonder if we took the time to send PM's or e-mails to previous folders for LR if they would return? It would be a nice start.

If you want to take the time to write a standard PM up, I'll have the staff review it and approve it. Personally it would be fine by me

looks like we lost wickedld9... his machine must have gone offline or something. Bummer.

[Darkstar]

i might have a 939/AGP around somewhere if you want it.

just added another P4 HT to the mix. i have a nice office manager at my small office, and i have a few of the PCs that are already on 24/7, and i got the OK to put F@H on them!

[dicecca112]

good job, see never hurts to ask

[skier]

Me? cause i was planning on getting a 1650PRO 512 600/800MHz PCIe for $49 after MIR and keeping this thing running(i am plenty ready to retire AGPx8, need to get caught up with the times a lil )

well, must have missed the second page there, i posted in reply to your asking Ken if it was a "AGP" board by any chance?"

but it looks like he is throwing in a PCIe card for you with the board.

I could use one of these if anyone has an extra laying around. My daily driver shot craps and I've replaced everything but the mobo and processor trying to test it. If I could find a mobo cheap enough, I'd buy another processor if this one is dead.

[Darkstar]

Ice,

I'll look around in my garage this weekend (if i can figure a way in) but just to clarify you want 939/AGP? or 939/PCIe?

[Mad_Goku]

I've been lurking around this post, lol. In case anyone's noticed I've got both my machines up and running so that's good for a WU and a half a day. It's a shame Wickedld9's rigs went down. I don't know if he had a power outage or if his roomie turned them off. Sucks either way. Hopefully he'll be home in a couple days and get them running again.

In the meantime, FOLD FOLD FOLD!!!!

[DaIceMan]

either would be fine. I have an AGP card that I can use, or a buddy of mine has a couple low end PCIe cards he pulled from junk machines. I'm just looking to get it back up as cheaply as possible.

[Darkstar]

I have a couple of Chaintech VNF4 Ultra MoBo's around somewhere if you want.

Well, that laptop isn't all that great with the Intel 1.6Ghz mobile processor. The crippling effect is something called VISTA that boggs it way down.

I'm really temped to either wipe out VISTA and do a fresh XP install and fore go the bonus keys on the keyboard or do Ubuntu and look for more drivers. This VISTA stuff must be invented from 43LL . It's a really dumb or pain in the OS. Just to copy or move data is labor intensive with all of the mouse clicks. And when you think it worked, the OS really put things elsewhere. Don't ask me how this thing downloads files from the internet yet. I still havn't found where those files are going to either.

So, folding with VISTA OS is bad, really bad on a Toshiba laptop. My son's Compaq laptop with a slower processor and half the memory is kicking WU's out faster using XP!

[Mad_Goku]

???? I've been folding with VISTA for a week now....Just installed it last sunday and I must say...once I tweaked it to my personal feel....I love it.

Folding isn't any different on VISTA than it was with XP. As far as downloads...I use Firefox...I don't trust IE at ALL.

Native Linux or Linux will have the fastest time per frame. I suggest that.
