Time for a new FreeRepublic folding@home thread.
Our FreeRepublic team of 325+ members comprised primarily of Free Republic members in good standing 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 Alzheimer's, Cancer, and Mad Cow (BSE).
Currently, the team is in 108th place (with 991 active CPUs - 34,150 completed Work Units and more than 6,000,000 points).
This is an entirely voluntary program, and if you want to learn more, please see the links posted below (or read one of the previous 16 folding threads)
I don't know what's going on, but, it's starting to get to me.
My son has been playing a computer game, 'Command and Conquer', and, 'Red Alert 2'. His games are on an external, E: drive. Not on my C drive, where my WU's are folding.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
