I quit folding for the summer (my AC couldn't quite keep up with it), but now that it's getting cooler, I'm going to start getting back into the game. I have a few machines to add:
P4 w/ 2600Pro GPU2
Celeron 2.66 w/ Linux Client
X2 5400 @3.0 w/ 8800 GTS (GPU2 client, I guess)
The first two are working fine, and I'll have them up soon. However, the third one (at a different house) is having some problems. Every time I start up the client, it gives the error "Error code 0 - Could not download core". This happens no matter the client I use. I have no firewall software, and the Windows firewall is disabled. As far as I know, there is nothing that should be blocking it on my router, either. Doesn't the client just use port 80 as a HTTP browser would? There's nothing helpful on the Stanford forum.

AF seems to have had a bump in the last few days on their Summary page. Although Team MacOS X looks like they are pretty steady for the past few weeks.

We are really closing PPD gap

I just brought a P4 3GHz Prescott online today and will be bringing my new Phenom 9850BE online tomorrow. There's a good chance I'll be able to get another P4 online as well in the next day or so. Unfortunately I don't have any folding-capable GPUs yet.

By those numbers, we're not. We went up 15,701 ppd, while they went up 16,801 and 17,065 ppd respectively. </spoil sport>

(The core speed is OCed) PPD was split between the two. From 1800PPD on 1 client to 900 and 900 PPD on 2 clients. I'm not seeing how I could use the extra processors on 1 core by running multiple clients.I can run two at once and get no slowdown right now (PPD doesn't change when I close one of my clients), because unless it's one of the new "big" workunits, I'm only using about 320 of the 800 stream processors. That's part of the reason why nVidia is beating AMD/ATI on F@H right now - fewer shaders, clocked higher.

Processor usage is really low right now like 5-10%. Can i run another smp client which will make use of my processor and get more points.
My other machine is a Dell inspiron laptop with C2D processor. Which client will be the best to use on my laptop. If it helps it has ati x1400 onboard chip and currently i have windows XP and ubuntu installed. Can someone help me out here or atleast point me to another thread where i can find this information.
thanks in advance.

Tr Average: 630,239
Today's Points: 694,317
MacOS X Average: 657,437
Today's Points: 689,441
Even in just a day, we've closed the gap by 7.5k points. Were only 27k away! We also out produced them today.
Is it possible we will be back on their threat list in a few days?
Unfortunately though, the only other team we have any chance in catching up to, Alliance Francophone, is also boosting their ppd.
