    PPD dropping

    Maybe I didn't see a thread on this, but anyways I normally am getting ~ 3k points per WU on my i7 860. However, I have noticed the past few days that I am getting some worth only a few hundred points...the last one was only 300. Any idea what is causing this? Some of the units are taking just...

    Prevent printer installation over network

    My wife is moving into an apartment complex for school and she has a Brother HL-2270DW printer. Since she only has a laptop and moves around the apartment, I would like to use the wireless on the printer. Unfortunately, the internet for the building is just through wireless APs. I have the...

    New project after restarting client

    When I shut down the client to restart the computer (or even just to desktop) and then start the client again, it starts a new project. I thought previously it would pickup where it was. I have the checkpoint interval set to 4 min. Is this a new change, and if so, what is the checkpoint interval...

    Setting up offsite backup for home use

    I have multiple copies of the things I consider important, but most of the time, they are all together in my house, rendering them useless to a fire or other disaster. What I would like to do is put a hard drive in my parent's computer that I can access and backup to. I know little to nothing...

    mkv audio in Win7

    I do not know if this has been answered yet, but i have looked around for awhile without any luck. I rip most of my movies to mkv. I use 5.1 ac3 for the audio track. Using my main HTPC, the audio sounds like I would expect. It is connected using an HDMI cable outputs only using the TV...

    WTT: HD 5830 for 2TB HDD (Samsung preferred)

    I am running out of hard drive space at about the worst time in the past 2 years, but hopefully I can still get a used hard drive for a 5830. The card is a Diamond HD 5830 (5830PE51G) and the reviews do not speak too highly of it, but I have had zero issues with it. I purchased it in late July...

    FT: GTX460 for HD5830

    Planning on giving BTC a shot, and I was going to sell my GTX460 anyways. Folded on in for maybe 2-3 mo total, hardly ever gamed on it. I *believe* I ran it at 850 without any issues, but it is in the box now so I cannot double check. Includes all original accessories and packaging...

    F@H on a notebook

    Yes, this is not probably the best idea, but I just wanted to see how the notebook would do. I got a XPS 14 a month or so ago with an i7-740qm in it, and I wanted to see what kind of ppd it gets. It isn't something that will run 24/7, but I might have it running at my office some of the time...

    Quick question on new client

    I haven't really been keeping up with the new client since I am not longer doing bigadv, so I have a couple quick questions about it. - Running smp only, is there a need/benefit to upgrade from the previous client (6.23 I think)? - Have they incorporated a way to change flags without...

    P1011x units

    Is anyone else getting these? Just pulled two in a row, 10113 & 10115. PPD is almost as low as the 670x and they take over a day on my i7-860 run. I can't imagine how long these will take on a C2D or AM2 processor...

    99% sure I've ruined my PSU, but...

    So I finally have done my first real idiotic move when messing around with my computers. I have an HTPC in a MicroFusion 350 Remote, and I finally got sick of the PSU fan. Well, I thought it was the PSU fan, but I wanted to check for sure. So I did what I have multiple times and stopped the...

    Trade FireMV 2250 for budget folding card

    So I have a FireMV 2250 PCIe 1x card that I was going to toss into my home server build to give me a low power video output, but then I thought I could just as easy put in a card to fold on. This is a PCIe 1x card, so it isn't the typical video card and is good for the mini ITX boards that only...

    Dropped notebook, need to test it

    So my wife dropped her laptop coming up the stairs the other day, and all I can visibly see is the lcd cover is broken and I think the monitor might be dead (backlight is out on M1330 LED, haven't put in a lot of time to see if its fixable). Before I order the replacement parts, I want to test...

    OS for home server running DC

    I am putting together a server (just a E5200, nothing crazy like an i7) and wanted to know what people usually run for their OS to continue to fold/boinc. I was originally just going to do something like FreeNAS, but I am pretty sure you can't run anything else with that. I have Win7 Pro, XP...

    Buying an open box processor

    I am looking to buy a processor that the seller says is open box/as is. They also state they cannot test the processor due to not having the right socket mobo. How likely is it that the processor is not going to work? From my experience, processors are basically the only part of the computer...

    WTB Black Mini P180

    Looking to quiet down my desktop, and I think I can handle the fact that it is ATX-sized. Not really interested in the white one, unless you are selling it really cheap. I can get a white P180 from newegg for $50 right now, so hopefully I can find something close to that for a used black one...

    Odd USB behavior on Intel D945GCLF2

    I purchased this board (Intel D945GCLF2) AS IS with the statement that it boots into the BIOS fine, no further testing. Receiving it, I find out that using a USB keyboard, I cannot enter BIOS or do anything. After getting a PS2 keyboard, I can get into the BIOS and I installed WIn7. However...

    Replacement DC jack for PicoPSU

    I recently purchased a mobo/picopsu combo from a certain online auction hosting website, and it arrived with the DC jack just cut off (bare leads). From what I can tell, I need a 2.5mm ID connector to replace it with (not OD). If that is the case, would something like this work? Not the best...
