Hey people. For all the oldies who know me, /wave. Long time folder. As I am graduating from school I am getting rid of the farm. Consists of 4 computers and a bunch of additional parts which I will put up. 1) Viewsonic g90fb...

I recently purchased a DVD writer, the Sony DW-Q30A BK and some Fujifilm DVD+R. I can read any cd or dvd but when I pop in one of my DVD+Rs Windows recognizes the disc as a blank cd and not a blank DVD. I have Windows updated and it reads CD-Rs as blank CDs. Any idea what the problem is...

I was thinking something, and bear with me here, maybe we could have a WoW guild so that some of us who play WoW can have fun together as a small/big guild. What do you guys think? And for all the naysayers going that WoW steals cycles, we could use the guild as a recruiting tool...

Any answers? What I am planning to do is to take a small HD and plug it as the only HD on the main pc, let Foldix install and then shut it down and move it to the system I want to fold. Can it be done or not possible? thanks all

Since I am going to get a DVD burner as my single drive I would like to sell off my current drive off. It has been working well for over a year without a problem and overall very reliable. The model number is CRX-320E Black. I will be letting it go for $10 + shipping. Or you can trade this +...

Here are some (false/falx) pictures of me :D Now more important things. Who here thinks I will make Chosen?

One of my borgs, no idea which is spewing one bad unit after another. Sad part is I dont see any way of knowing which one it is. Check my badge. Any ideas of knowing which one? :confused:

Since DC is a bit slow moving today let me tell you 2 ghetto folding stories. Feel free to share yours. 1) My uncle's mobo finally gave way and I told him to buy a new one. He got the Abit Via one and I got done installing and cleaned out a ton of dirt but the temps still was at 58C with a XP...

Here is what I did: My sis is here for the holidays and does not have internet access on here laptop. She already has FAH so what I did was download a second directory in my internet able rig, transfer into a USB drive, copy the FAH directory over to her hard drive and let it fold...

Or Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Or a Belated Winter Solstice to you. Take your pick, the feeling is the same. Well its Dec 24th from where I am posting right now so wanna get the warm wishes going for the [H]orde. [H]ope you have a great time and borg one for the team. :cool:

Temporarily. :p Its the semester/Christmas/holiday/winter solstice break so I will be going back to my parents tomorrow morning. Unfortunatly, since I have to fly, there is no way any of my three boxen can be transported back. Garden will be powered back on with Viper's addition from the...

I have been looking at a plan to see if I could borg a few of the machines that are present here on campus. We have close to 2000 machines and even borging 200-300, especially when nobody is logged on was a good idea. Then I saw this :( Looks like a no go for me. Bummer.

And join the team number for UD. :p Hope I got you to look. If you did you guys got burned :D What is the memory requirements for UD? Anything like the 100+ mb needed for the big packets units?

Just as the title says, have fun on the way to the top 100 at least. :D :eek:

I have no idea what to do. My new clawhammer 3000+ was just set up last night. After reseating the HSF twice last night, the idle temps are still at 50C while the Folding temps are at 60C. I am pretty sure this is very high but I dont understand why. Can anyone confirm that this is high? The...

I need working PC133 or DDR 266 and up. Either 1 x 256 or 2 x 128 will do. I have for trade one of the following items: Working CD-ROM from a Dell Pull Working Floppy drive from a Dell Pull USB externel CD-RW, worked the last time I used it can test again. Includes all the accesories. Rise...

I am in a deal with some for a CG Clawhammer so I need a mobo for this. I was looking at the VNF3-250 but I came across this mobo here. I really like this one b/c it supports 3gb memory rather than 2gb of the vnf3 Any idea if this is a good o/cing mobo. I see no reviews but I have heard good...

Terms: Non CC Paypal - I only have a normal free account. It is verified and tied to my university email. I can ship first if you have 10+ heat. Otherwise I need to see the money. I can ship either USPS Priority or Fedex. You decide. Best way to reach me is through PM. I hang out at the DC...

And I am in love with this mod. No other mod/game has grabbed me like this game except for Enemy Territory and Unreal Tournament. :D Tense moments are there especially when you are slowly making your way next to a wall, getting to an enemy position. The only thing that matches that was when I...

An Asus A7N266-VM mobo from my uncle's rig. He had problems with it and I had to replace it. The mobo had two busted caps. Brought it back here to work on it. I replaced the caps. I tested it with my 1700+. It POSTed without problems. Then it states that a Hardware Error was discovered. I...

take a look at my log and help me with this. The cpu is not o/ced, is a computer in the lab and I run it only when I am logged in. [14:12:06] Folding@Home QMD Core [14:12:06] Version 1.04 (Apr 7, 2005) [14:12:06] [14:12:06] Preparing to commence simulation [14:12:06] - Looking at...

Ok, here we go. In the future I anticipate having more than 4 computers and my 4 port router will not be able to handle this. I have been contemplating going to Fold Server so that I can save on buying cables and spending money on HDs. So I have a few questions on Fold Server: 1) So I know...

I managed to pick up my uncle's old mobo which had some busted caps. In preparation to hopefully improve the performance, I had bought a 512 stick of DDR 400 for $40 on Anandtech forums. The seller sent it to me through USPS Priority Mail with DC. Seems USPS mis-delivered it. The seller gave...

Ok I went to the local radioshack to replace 2 busted caps on a socket A mobo I have here in the hopes of getting another proc up. They don't have it. Anyplace I can reliably order capacitors or can anyone hook me up with some? I need 2 blue and gold 6.3V 3300 microF caps. Thanks all. :)

My roomie has a rig with the above CPU on it. Since I installed FAH on his comp, everytime he plays UT2004 and has FAH on at the same time, the computer reboots after 15-30 minutes. His Thermaltake temp sensor says that his CPU is running at 66C. The question is that the only reason for the...

Linkified For those too lazy/unable to access link: By ASTARA MARCH WASHINGTON, Oct. 7 (UPI) -- The recent discovery in Sweden of a group of 64 genes that can be used to predict whether women with breast cancer will respond to treatment following surgery moves the infant field of DNA...

Linkified Unlinked cut and paste: By Anthony J. Brown, MD NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Long-term use of "NSAID" type pain relievers, such as aspirin and Motrin, appears to reduce the risk of oral cancer, a disease that is closely linked to tobacco use, new research suggests...

From this thread here we had a good ol discussion on barbarian ranks. I have since worked and played around with some and I will put them up here as well as a plan of how they work in my head. I will put up a poll to ask whether you guys like it, or changes are to be made and if not what can be...

magnusvir is assaulting you. You have a month and a half. :D Link showing his possible demise

I remembered a few weeks back there was an auto installer which pretty much you typed in the usernamer, team number and other such options and the thing downloads the client from stanford and such. My sister is now borging in my name back home, because I gave her an incentive to do so. I...

The p4 1.4 in my sig only has 128 mb of RDRAM. I was thinking about upgrading some RDRAM on the cheap if I can find it. It runs unhappy_mage's Anti-Fold Server or whatever it is called now. If I have 256, I can definitely get in 600 pointers which I estimate would yield me 80-90 ppd, but can...

Roomie's computer was riddled with spyware and trojans.I did not know when I borged his computer. Today, while backing up to get ready to reformat, it just stopped working. Luckily I could still access his computer and managed to finish the backup. We had to reformat, losing a wu that was...

Ok, so I am going to pitch FAH to the manager of my dorm here, hoping the 5-6 p4 2+ ghz can begin to fold for the [H]orde. Since these are networked to the central servers at Purdue and are limited accounts, I will not be able to likely install the service in the console files. Also it is quite...

For anyone/everyone living in a dorm. YMMV Ok so today was a busy day so I out for most of the day. My roommate's rig has already been borged so he knows all I have told him about Folding@Home. This guy from my floor comes over while I am gone for something and he sees my naked boxen (for...

I have a chance here to possibly recruit a bunch of people in my dorm for the [H]orde. Here is the problem. Most dont know me. Most sit in their rooms playing Halo or something or the other. I managed to get permission to set up a flyer around the hall but I want to test out the reception to...

Ok I finally convinced my roomie to run FAH but he wants to run only the screensaver version. What I need to know is one critical question: It runs in screensaver mode, but when the screensaver goes off, does the core itself shutdown, freeing up all the memory it used? I am asking this b/c...

So..since I will be at my dorm the whole weekend, I will be finally pulling up my old Dell P4 1.4 online as well as set up VNC for both the comps to monitor it. And also start waiting for a new PC from Viper. :p Oh question for mage. How/can I run TightVNC and Samba on Anti-Fold server? If...
