So after 16-20min frames on my 3.0Ghz Mac Pro, at 100% I get this:

Ugh! 1440 points GONE, it's hard to let go So can anyone tell me what happened? I just got back into folding a few days ago!

Oh I see the problem, your mac pro only has 10gigs of ram! J/K

Mmm seg faults, classic C programming error, that sucks man. Were you running OS X or Windows?

 

[clean_me]

Yeah I think I may need some more RAM, I think you're right .........I'm running OS X.

So should I be doing anything different to avoid these faults?




It's a bad day-my core duo Mini was at 96% of a 1700pt WU and ran out of time I guess I'll have to leave that on all the time

Remember, it's still a beta client so things WILL improve. Make sure you post it in the F@H forum as well so the team knows that folks are experiencing issues.
