Official TBCS Folding Team

The one fact that still makes me smile every time, is when I look at the 5 threats and conquests and still see that there is absolutely NO-ONE anywhere on the PLANET catching us

Quad socket should be up and playing this week, we'll see what happens on my limited internet.

Just noticed - we now have a total of 5 contributors who have passed the 250,000 point mark - x88x, Dilluzio, Poochster, mDust and yours truly - pats on the back all round.

An extra pat for x88x who is the only person so far to hit the half-million

I know there are specific tests just to stress video ram. Major Geeks has one that I've used before, it's not bad.

Try this

Didn't work, I guess there is a driver bug in the newer Nvidia drivers that won't allow it to run. I've contacted EVGA so I'll have to see what they say. I don't really want to have to pull the GTX 470 as it means I'll be stepping down to a GT 210 and will be a big hit to my points generated.

FYI, incase anyone else runs into this, I found out that the GPU clients fail when the Remote Desktop service is running. Fix for this if you want to have remote access to headless systems, is to disable Remote Desktop connections (ie, disable the service) and use VNC instead.

Not a problem I have unless I actually remotely log in, then everything goes to hell - but having the pc READY for a remote connection doesn't cause me any issues

I've also noticed that a client will occasionally be "stuck" and run for 2 or 3 hours without a change in percentage. all you have to do ti fix it is open task manager and kill the Folding processes. and delete the WU from the client that is stuck. (aka gpu0 or smp) then it'll pull a new WU.

ps. gained 10k on you last night x88x, only 40 left to go

[slaveofconvention]

Right now we're sitting at exactly 1500 according to the EO page - only 300 places left to go and we'll get those individual stats

Got it working on my Wife's PC. Ranked #20 for TBCS

I found that once I had logged in, logged out, but left the service running, it still wouldn't start. IDK, ymmv. Either way, I disabled the service just to make sure I didn't forget and use it by accident.
