got my pc running the client almost 24/7 in the background again for the last 2 weeks or so, not sure if it's helping much - but it's generally sat doing nothing anywho
Fired up the Nvidia GPU client. Let's see how the bastard performs. Using current WHQL drivers from Nvidia, ver 175.xx or whatever.
I do think it's pants that if you view the damn client, it seems to submit work units as soon as you close even if you are only 1% done. Let's hope it's just a graphical error.
Re: the nvidia client, buggiest pile of crap EVER. I'm going to wait till something better is released.
According to the design team, ATi/AMD went for stability, Nvidia went for speed. We can see now which was the right way to go. My old 1950 wasn't problem free but it didn't crash every few moments and actually submitted results. I folded 2 units on the nvidia card and 0 submissions. Stupid, absolutely STUPID software.
It works ok for some people but unless you plan on folding 24/7 on the system, I would not recommend it for a daily use system.
Still chugging along, but this system's falling to pieces.. hopefully once I get mahself a proper career, i'll be upgrading within 2 months then really start pumping out some WUs
/glares and forewarns everyone that he'll be bugging them for hardware advice
one of my desktops that was dedicated to folding/testing has died.. expect my production lately to drop until I get it sorted out. Keeps bluescreening when starting the folding client and I suspect either 1) bad driver or 2) bad memory
I am going to buy the new 4870 based dual-chip card when it is released and look to offload by 1950xt for cheap or give it to a friend and then run my 8800gts as much as possible in my HTPC setup, folding
It appears the majority of issues for the g80 core in folding are a result of x64 drivers and support so, in my 32-bit setup, it should run fine
Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
