Folding@Home Computer Hope team

[Forum Gaming Master]

It is pretty hard to get set up...

But you don't get shown (I think) until you complete one work load.
To get into the team: Right-Click the FoldingHome program thing, go configure, then User (tab), then type in 67290 as team name, and have your name (or whatever) as user name.

BTW, I'm working on:
p3040_supervillin-03
GROMACS core (does anyone know what this is?)

on Folding@Home.

I wish I could help, I feel useless . . .
Actually, I may get the old PC working again with F@H, and just add myself to the team.
Over time, it crunched a considerable amount of work units, considering its Sempron CPU.

Based on structures from previous villin simulations we have conducted, this class of projects delves deeper, obtaining a better statistical picture of the folding process.

You can do lookups on the project numbers at: http://fah-web.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/fahproject

It's ok if you don't have the processing power to do this project or want to utilize your processing power for something else I can understand.

It's because I have a laptop, it gets hot enough as it is and I don't want to strain it.
If the heat wasn't a problem, it'd be pretty good, it's powerful.
Guess I'll head off downstairs and set the desktop back onto it.

You can limit the amount of CPU usage it takes. I am running it on my laptop, and have no problem. Folding@home disables itself when you run on battery.

how do you set the amount it sucks up the cpu and it saddened yesterday, i was playing wow and the game minimized and wouldnt open back up so i thought it was an error so i uninstalled it and reinstalled it patched it (ummm like 2 hours or something) and it still didnt work so i thought about it than i realized it was the program it made me mad cuz it took me that long to figure it out but oh well i have it running when im at work.

Ugh sorry to hear about that unlovedwarrior. It's crazy that a little app like that would cause so much grief with WoW.  To adjust the CPU usage you can right-click on the icon in the Systray and go to Configure, under Configure click the Advanced tab. By default the CPU core usage should be set to the lowest possible.

In addition if you're running it and want to pause it you can right-click the icon and choose the pause option.

its just weird thou how it waited so long to effect it but oh well

I know I can limit it, but it's not much use running with 10% of my CPU.
I also don't want it to trigger the CPU to keep stepping up, most of the time it can stay at 800MHz which is fine.
And I never use my battery, so that doesn't matter to me.

Unloved Warrior,
It was the Sims 2, wasn't it?

(A game that probably should never be minimized in anyones right mind)

huh sims 2 i havent played that in a long time it was wow that was saddening me

I'm still not showing up

A piece of paper...no matter how thin cannot be folded more than 7 times...
