Thanks, been cheating and checking out the text file, should have my first 2 units done soon if not already.

 

[fitz]

Ugh.. I really should get back to folding..

 

[Jewelzz]

Pffft, what a waste

 

[Electronic Punk]

Moving up the listing

 

[tdinc]

my folding has been down. taking a break for the summer. i should be up and running by fall......

 

[Brad]

I started my PS3 back up again. Undecided if I get the i7 into the mix.

Pffft, what a waste

Yep, because we all know anything that yields results which help cancer research as well as searching for cures for other diseases is a complete waste of time

Hmm, 900 PPD with the PS3 vs an i7 SMP is a no brainer for me, like 10K PPD. Besides, I'M sure you also have a good GPU too to throw in the mix. Sorry to be so forward with ya, I'm a folding nut..

EDIT: My sig doesn't show up yet so here's what I'm running,

Intel Q6600 quad, 4GB RAM, 2X 9800GT

AMD X2 3800+, 1GB, GTX260-216

 

[tdinc]

I have been off line for sometime now, had to unload the 3 PC's I was using.................. but I finally will bring my PS3 to the mix very soon. I know I said a few weeks ago I would but getting things in order at the moment.

If you are usin the multi gpu version how can you tell if its using both? I grabed 6.23 with viewer and its only saying one of the two cards, is it a case of if there are two cards it will use them? or do i need to tell it there are two cards?

 

[trukkmann]

You have to un-SLi the cards, make a "dummy plug" for the lower GPU(s) video outputs, install 2 clients in seperate folders, config with the "-local" flag...I'm sure there's more. I'll have to check the "other" forum I go to for exact details. In other words, it's a PITA. :laugh:

 

[Dark Atheist]

seems you also need to have two monitors connected to trick it, which counts it out for me, i will remove the 2nd card and just use the one

 

[trukkmann]

seems you also need to have two monitors...

That's what the "dummy" plugs are for. I'll have to look for the write up on it on the fah forum.

 

[Dark Atheist]

ok, thanks

 

[trukkmann]

Scroll down a little ways to "Installation for a multi-GPU system"...
Folding@home - WinGPUGuide

Dummy plugs are needed for Vista and Win7 but not XP. There is no info on that page about how to make dummy plugs, but an easy how-to can be found here...
The 30 Second Dummy Plug - Overclock.net - Overclocking.net

If you get it going post back how it does!

 

[Dark Atheist]

thanks - having to sort out pc due to a few issues, as soon as i have the drives sorted i will give it a look over

Updated with newer sig information.

http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/sigs/sigimage.php/un=Sazar/t=35216/sigimage.gif

Add that to your signature if on a server that allows for images in signatures and you are good.

Just change the user-handle and team number as needed (OSNN + NvNews team-members need not update that number).

The net result is as follows:

 

[tom9042]

We should change the name of the folding team to "Bman"!

 

[epk]

Hey, are the sigs not getting updated anymore? saw on my last post that my avg is zero, but I've been back to folding (and on the team) for a couple of weeks now :s

 

[Sazar]

Dunno. I stopped folding a little while back, haven't gotten back into it yet and I use a different sig than you do. Might want to simply use a different sig perhaps?
