I want to see what I can churn out in the next day or two...
AMD X2 4200 (running two instances for both cores 100% on both cores)
AMD X2 4200 (running two instances for both cores 100% on both cores)
P4 3.0ghz (running two instances for both cores 100% on both cores)
P4 2.0ghz (single core100% )
Holding off on the other 2 1.8g Pentium-M's, and AMD Athlon 2500(Barton).
I'v got a p4 3.0Ghz how do you get two instances running??
and why des It say i have 104 days till my WU is complete?
I don't use the graphical versions.... I use the command line ones without the "fluff".
Does Folding@home run on dual processor or multi-core machines? Yes, you can in two ways. For linux or OSX/Intel, one can run our SMP client.
For other platforms, additional processors must run the console version (with the "-local" command-line argument if run on Windows). First, make additional directories for each processor and copy the FAH Console executable file into each. Then configure them with the -config switch, filling in settings for each. It is very important to make sure that under the "Advanced Settings" option each copy is given a unique machine ID (from 1 to 8). The first copy will default to a machine ID of 1, so additional copies should be given IDs of 2, 3, 4, etc. Each may then be run out of their installed directory, using the -local switch on windows.
Digiblur, are you also running them as a Windows service or starting them manually. I found i had to go into regedit to add the -local to the -svcstart that was in windows services setup. Or am i doing something wrong ?
I don't know about Vista, but you can get a Dashboard Widget for OSX that displays your current WU status as well as your Team rank and number of units completed:

It's a nice quick way to keep tabs on your status without opening up the Folding@home app.
BTW, those of us with dual- or quad-core CPUs should try using the SMP beta. I was looking at the F@H Forums and one of the mods mentioned that they reward beta testers with more points per WU completed. My first WU was worth 1440 points.
