Why take a shot at us? Too hard? Nice one! You know the answer anyway so just plug it in.

Can anyone help me clear up this confusion? On tiger direct they list two s754 CPUs... a OEM 3400+ and an OEM 3300+. The specs on both seem wrong to me. Shouldn't the 3400 have the 1600bus and not the 3300? Is this an input error or am I missing something? link to tigerdirect.ca

Is it too late to get in? I'm ready!

Dude... some guys have posted links and referenced some very specific instructions on how to go about this whole thing. These links are also instructive and if you actually read through them and try to understand them you wont have to ask questions like the ones you are asking. So start at...

Joined the Hord with my socket A ---added my laptop soon thereafter. Doing a CPU upgrade on the "A" caused unexpected MB failure. Replaced whole unit with new socket 754 and CPU -- then FIXED original socket A MB and finished new CPU install. Now have 3 sysems for a total of 4.5 Ghz of...

What's the first step to overclocking? Changing the Vcore? Is it that simple?

I mistakenly sent a WU anonymously --- was a new computer and I rushed through the config. I just figured it out (and corrected the error mid fold on the 2nd WU so I should be ok) but is there anyway to get credit for the WU I sent?

All sorted now. There was a short somewhere on the board. I manually shorted every single aspect of the board -- and also left it alone for two days. This all seemed to help fix it. Of course not before I bought a new MB and CPU.... so I have an extra computer for folding. Big Ups to...

The new parts were just a CPU (duron 1.8) and thermaltake TR2 M1 Socket A fan.... Since posting, I am only trying the original CPU and hs/f to work...(eliminating the "new" variables) (see sig)

... what to do! Any ideas or suggestions? My guess is I'm buggered! http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?p=1029586264#post1029586264

Brothers.... my socket A MB is going down..... hard. (my main folding rig too!) Send for help! http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?p=1029586264#post1029586264

no... I'll go do that right now. I just swapped the CPU. (Duron 1.0 Morgan to Duron 1.8)... I'll be back.! OK -- I'm back. nada. still the same result. Also tried different psu

OK tried what you said took out the board and laid it on small table connected power to board with vid card, monitor, and single stick RAM installed LED's on CPU fan flashed no light on MB anymore Repeated process with second RAM module. sae result. CPU fan LED flash.... no light on...

Just got a new processor and fan and decided to swap out cases at the same time so I did a complete system breakdown and rebuild. Everything went smooth --plugged everything in and hit power. LEDs in my CPU fan blinked once, and this little light next to the power input on the board turned on...

I think that's what happened. Once I restarted the second time, things sorted themselves out -- it ran for a day and ended early either due to error, or the natural result of the experiment. My third WU is folding now. And I am listed as active.

OK... first work unit turned in. http://www.hardfolding.com/index.php?go=38&tm=33&id=181235 Why does it say I am inactive? Also.... after my first WU turned in last night, the Machine DL'd a new protein, but then nothing happened -- it didn't do any work. I found it this morning still open...

Forgive me if I've got my wires crossed somewhere.... thaks for your help too. I could have sworn I've read there is a 3day max for turning in WU's...

My folding name is Crops and I should complete my first WU tonight sometime around 1:30am.... Is it normal to be given 400 frames? I am seriously close to going over the three days (2:37am) limit. I've not touched the computer for fear of missing the deadline. My fingers are crossed.

To get into the trade forum, there's a "Stats ID" menu that requires filling in. Is this something i get once my first WU is turned in?

I've been folding 100% 24/7 for almost 3 days and am about to deliver my first work unit. It was 400 steps (that's almost too big for my machine) and I hope to just squeeze in under the 3 day deadline. Question I have is: Where do I find my stats ID # for my profile? Plus --what else do I...

Welcome back Tengis! Get folding! You were my folding hero. Do it for the kids!

But if we find the aliens they will help us cure cancer.

Ya... my thoughts too. I was following this thread imagining this crazy kid running around his school saving the world through distributed computing. Can we ask what happened? How (if he did) did he fall out of favour? Also --- how many CPU's does he have going right now?

You need a UXGA screen..... probably a WUXGA. Hard to find, but the best option I know of for angled viewing.

What's up with this Tengis guy? I came back to this thread to see how he's doing and I see banned next to his name. Isn't he folding a million machines anymore? Did his dad turn out NOT to be an IT admin?

I'm all over this socket A madness. I also have an untested Duron (Morgan) 800Mhz CPU kicking around that I'm dying to get a motherboard for (my GF wont let me :( -- she's trying to keep the Socket A army down!. ) Sign me up! (but don't tell her or I'll get in trouble).
