-X-RaTeD- Posted September 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 The new interface makes it a lot easier, years ago this used to be all command line stuff. I would just go with the default options with this new client installer. The web config is pretty neat. Just FYI if you don't add a team number then you will be folding under team "Anonymous" which is fine and all but.. I just prefer to help a team out, you know? When I hear music, I fear no danger.

-X-RaTeD- Posted September 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 It can be configured to fold on either/or/both. does it need a lot of uploads speed? i am sure i have the dowload but my upload kinda sux After your computer completes a work unit (WU), it's uploaded to Stanford. The size upload depends on the size WU's that your computer is assigned. You can kind of choose what size projects that you want your computer to work on based on various flags that you set. The WU size for CPU's is related to the amount of cores that you want utilized. A completed WU for 2 threads could be less than 1MB, where as a WU assigned to an 32 core Operation server could be 300MB+. wow that is a lot less than i was expecting right now just trying to figure out how the configuration works If you need help setting it up, let me know.

Lbox88 Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 I used to do it and took advantage of the 7 Alienware computers at work to help out, but work network caught on and blocked everything so I can't run it anymore.

-X-RaTeD- Posted September 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 Could someone point Steve this way? Since we do not have a team, I wouldn't mind creating one so that members of our forums could voluntarily fold for Team SMD. Need permission from the SM in SMD first though When I hear music, I fear no danger. I am invulnerable. I see no foe.

n1ghtsn1p3r Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 I did a little bit of folding years ago on my old C2D E8500 rig with an ATI Radeon HD 4850.I also dabbled with the SETI@Home one as well. I learned about that one in my high school Computer Science class. Apparently my teacher had all of the computers in the classroom crunching data while nobody was using them. I actually have the SETI one installed on this rig, but I don't run it all the time to help with electricity (I have mine set up to do all 4 cores, plus both GPUs). I have an interest in aliens and UFOs, which is why I dabble with it I'm looking at the folding one again. Plus I love the screensaver mode 2016 Ford Focus SE No build log yetDC Audio 1.2K2x DC Audio Level 2 10" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-X-RaTeD- Posted September 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 Yeah the electric and heat can be killer, I ended up having to get one of those portable a/c units for the ol' man cave, central air just wasn't cutting it. I'm gonna email a mod and have them point Steve these way to hopefully get an ok so we can get something started, I'd be happy to fold under the SMD flag, and it looks like we could get a good team going here of both previous and new folders.

ChevyBoy95 Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 so, is this thing sending info to your computer, using a small amount of computing power to do calculations, and then sending the results back to their location/server?

-X-RaTeD- Posted October 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 I did set up a team back when I made this thread, was just hoping to hear something back before putting it here, but I haven't gotten a reply to my PM's for like 3 weeks now. So, I guess it's not a big deal. Team SMD's team number is 225306 Team Stats can be monitored on Sanford's page here: http://fah-web.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/main.py?qtype=teampage&teamnum=225306 And once we are up to about 800k points, we'll be on the EoC page to see how we rank against other teams. This should be fun Fold on brothers. When I hear music, I fear no danger. I am invulnerable. I see no foe.
