Help Stanford University scientists studying Alzheimer’s, Huntington’s, Parkinson’s, and many cancers by simply running a piece of software on your computer.

The problems we are trying to solve require so many calculations, we ask people to donate their unused computer power to crunch some of the numbers.

Okay guys Joined the Folding@home Team set at Full. I only have a six core CPU at the moment but should be enough as the program is only 32 bit and my machine is 64. I see intel is bringing out the 8 core CPU(s) with hyper-threading enabled, therefore, boasting no less that 16 execution threads for the 8 core chips in the second half of 2014. They say the Haswell-E will be Intel’s last and best offering using the 22 nm fabrication process. Can’t wait! :)

After a good few months of no activity (last WU 2013-05-28) , I’m finally in a position to start folding again, and this time with more power.

I was pleasantly surprised to find @ADIGA and ANONRA contributing to the team. And @flabbyrabbit continuing to process work units, well done.

I’ll be running on two (more to come), i7 CPU 870 @ 2.93GHz and a Xeon CPU E5-1620 0 @ 3.60GHz, these will be running 24/7.

I’ve access to a lab full of machines, and will be bringing them online over the next month or so.

Lets try and get some more users going, @flabbyrabbit, maybe some form a medal to uses who contribute for over 6months, or some form of incentive?

Okay, I don’t know if I’ve set it up wrong but both computers aren’t making any progress and I also don’t seem to show up when I look at the team stuff either. I think I’ve either set it up wrong or my computers probably aren’t good enough to run this.

the upadate will take some time, besides its really slow, even on somewhat good computers.

guys i found a way to activate the GPU with the latest version of it (on linux).
if you have a GPU that has all the dirvers yet did not know how to use it or you are getting an error message about no jobs on server or something like that just drop me a note.

Argh, I’ve lost a few days of processing time on my good machine, looks like they had blocked the F@H client from connecting to the server, so I was unable to upload my results.

I’ve fixed this by throwing it through Privoxy and Tor, bit annoying though.

@ADIGA What level of power were you running it on? Sometimes I set mine to Idle or light. But be careful when changing it as some work units might fail if the processing level is changed whilst they are running.

*********** [ADIGA]

was running it on high and running the gpu only, could not run on cpu, when ever i set it to high the computer reboots.
kept it that way for around a week then the BIOS got fucked up and now can not run anything other than firefox and calculator :(

still working on it, this CMOS jumper thingy is a pain in the ass to get the right software installed on it.

should be able to run things smoothly with in the next few days … after i buy me another 3 power supplies :(
my current can not push the gpu to its limits and a 1000W power supply will be around 200-250$

so ill just by me 3 300W each for 30$ and find a way to run them all together and find a case to fit them in …

Hello all you computer whiz’s. Like Osaka said we need more of your computer spare time on our Foulding@Home group it costs you exactly nothing and you could help, even in a small way to save lives or at least make their last days a lot more comfortable.

We want more on our small team. There are thousands of you out there that use this site for your entertainment and it costs you nothing. We have only 12 members so far : Osaka - port_22 - flabbyrabbit - Adiga - VoidSignal - Nighttshad3 - CygnusH33L - Wally - tlotr - Statey - Fireshard And little old me ANONRA.

My machine is set to FULL and I see no change to what I am using my machine for. In fact, this machine I have right now is not only running the Folding@Home software, it is also running my Home CCTV equipment and 4 cameras. Downloading movies, watching movies at night in bed, accessing the internet and much, much more. So if my machine can do it I’m sure you wouldn’t miss a little CPU Speed it would take to run the Foulding@ Home software. Even as you sleep. I’m sure if you needed your parents permission to leave your machine running they would agree and say yes. So come check us out HERE @ our 223679 team Or the main website MAIN SITE HERE

@Osaka I am running Windows XP SP 3. No errors are showing up, but what concerns me is that there is no visible progress. It says it’s running and consumes some CPU, but other things such as the progress bar don’t change. Perhaps I am rushing it a bit and should give it some time, but I’ll find out when I get back home.

Hey Elhitch, use the advanced control in the FAH Control. You will see the status and progress on there. Give it time and the progress will change and how much it changes is dictated by the Folding Power you select. Okay? :)

@Trinity I’ve already done that, lass. I let it work at Medium (or full, not sure) speed for about half an hour, not any progress at all shown neither by the Advanced or Web control. I am really doubting it’s actually doing anything.

Hi Eljitch, I only have a small toshiba Portege R500 and its not very fast but it does it in the end but I had to leave it on all night too. I must get a faster machine. I’ll have to phone ANONRA as he built one for my Brother and it’s well quick. Just need to get the pennies saved for it though.

It only has 2GB of memory and like Trinity says “its not very fast” but she is letting her wee machine run. Using its spare time for the 223679 Folding@home Team. :)

@lucki58300 The reason is that you probably didn’t solve a whole work unit(WUs) yet. That can take from a few hours to several days (my last completed module took over a week, actually). Don’t lose heart and keep doing it ;)

@kamzhik It doesn’t really matter. It will just take longer for you to complete work, but you will be helping :) And that’s what matters, after all, is it not? :)

Correct you haven’t completed a work unit yet. You’ll get there in the end mate! lol :)
Hey kamzhik, like lucki58300 said, “ It doesn’t really matter. It will just take longer for you to complete a work unit, that’s all and all you need do is leave your machine on overnight when you are not using it and set it to full and when you are using it turn it down a bit. Trinity’s is only a small machine and so far she has only done 1 unit but at least she is contributing. So don’t worry if your machine is a little slow, everything helps. Okay mate?

Pete Maynard [Osaka]

@kamzhik - That’s not good.

Does your laptop work with just the power cord in, If I leave my laptop on I like to remove the battery and just run it from the mains.

What laptop are you thinking to get, or maybe you could get a replacement battery pack from ebay or something.

Modern laptop batteries are Lithium ION and are NOT affected by constant charging and recharging. Although they do wear out just like any battery. Also modern laptops have special circuit that prevents overcharging.

You can have your laptop plugged into power and use it just like the desk top without a battery installed with NO problems. Some times this too will help your battery, as too much heat can also reduce your batteries life span, I would like to say, that if you only run the laptop without a battery, possibly consider selling it and getting a desktop - you could probably get something a lot more powerful for the same money!

Hey welcome new people, glad to see you :)

Due to PAT testing and power outages, three of my machines went offline for 3-4 days and one for a day. So as you can see below, not healthy for my stats. :D

I took this chance to do some much needed updates, and they should all be back up and running in no time. Though the nice fast SSD, pictured in the bottom right, does have some issues.

I wonder if you could fold on Intel’s Xeon Phi.

They are down from $1695 to $185 (crazy) - http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTgzNjY. I want one just to have one.

Is the team dead?
http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/team_summary.php?s=&t=223679
This stats page says last contributions were in late August.
Anyhow, joined the team with a few lab computers. I think a Xeon (and a weak GPU) and 3 i7s.
