Welcome to the folding at home thread. The previous thread has gotten too large, so we move on to yet another.
While this folding@home team is not officially sanctioned by Free Republic, it's members, or it's founders, it is comprised primarily of Free Republic members in good standing, who have banded together, to donate their excess CPU cycles to a worthy cause. Via Distributed computing, millions of computers around the world, contribute directly to scientific research, in the quest for a greater understanding of diseases such as Alzheimers, Cancer, and Mad Cow (BSE).
Currently, the team is in 777th place, having moved up from 1200th place, a week earlier, and is now in the top 100 teams, for daily contributions.
This is an entirely voluntary program, and if you want to learn more, links are provided to the program, or it is easily googled by "folding@home".
we're up to 349 CPUs!!
177 folding members!!
Thanks. *sigh of relief*

When you set it up this time, did you tell it to run as a service? That way, if the computer shuts down for any reason, it'll automatically restart itself when the computer starts...
Now at 704!
Woohoo!
Double-woo - 700!!
Yes I did. I made sure of that. :-)
Excellent - you're loaded for bear in that case :)
350 CPUs ----- woohooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I added an old AMD K7 700MHz and a P3 500MHz. I have an AMD Athlon Thunderbird C 1100MHz in a box in the closet somewhere but I think the motherboard is fried.
I don't believe that XP Home runs dual processors.
You're correct, it doesn't, but HT will allow you to run two instances of the console client, with one each, running in each virtual processor.
Why am I not showing up in the list? I signed up under team number 36120 a few days ago.
I just noticed your "80" processors!!!
That's not fair!!!!! /said in the most liberal of voices LOL
now up to 697!
You do not show up on the list until you have completed and submitted a work unit.
A new protein was discovered today. I wonder if it will be added to the project.
