i have 4 friends folding in my name and they all say it's working , but , in my status only 1 pc has been working in 50 days
and worse no pc's have been working in 7 days , mine is on every night , but is very very slow at folding
what's going wrong
It's possible that the computers that are folding for you aren't completing units very fast. Do you know roughly what processors they're using?
smeezekitty - if your temperatures are that bad there's something wrong with your cooling. Don't blame folding@home, it's your choice whether or not to run it just as it's your choice to run any intensive program. If F@H raises your temperatures that much, a game or anything else intensive will be even worse, so maybe you should rip into the game designers for taking advantage of modern processors?
I'm not trying to be harsh, all I'm saying is that this is a hardware and possibly an attitude problem, not a software problem. There are many easy ways to fix the problems you're having, if that's what you want then feel free to ask for help.
