Please drop by and restart your folding on your new systems.

Thanks!

Greetings, TB -

Still plugging away, but like me the system has slowed down some. I still leave my XP system running 24/7 so it's helping out. Thanks for keeping us focused on the prize - assisting in the creation of the scientific research necessary to any resultant cure for some very destructive diseases. Cheers!

Thanks for the ping. I haven’t run FAH for a couple of years...just downloaded it and installed it on my current computer.

Was able to sign up on my old screen name and the FR team with no problem.

Texas, thanks for taking your time posting this, I’ve been Folding steadily, but I was starting to think about deleting FAH from my machines.

I have never gotten the GPU Folder to work, my video cards just aren’t powerful enough to make a real difference and I never could get the GPU Folder to run as a service.

I’ve still managed to accumulate 5M+ points using the CPU Folders on 3 machines. The last time I looked at my score, it was somewhere over 2M.

I probably should look to see if there have been improvements or changes to the setup that I should incorporate.

Sweet, I think I got my network issues finally resolved. I’m up to 129 (rank) now.

So I got an XBox 360 a while ago. Can I fold on that?

Still plimkin’ away. IT retired my Xeon box, which was my best-producing machine. Gave me a nice Dell M4600 Precision laptop, but it’s all locked down; no admin rights; no F@H. :(

So, point production is in the sink (I’ve fallen 8 positions in the team ranking since 5/20/12) until I get more horsepower on-stream at home. Still, I’ve got an old single-core XP box going 24/7 keeping me moving forward.

Thanks for the heads up.
I’ve been slacking for awhile it seems.
I kind of dropped off after replacing my home computer.
Just installed on my new laptop at work and my new(est) desktop at home.
I’ll have to throw it on the kid’s computers, too.
The youngest (first grade) is only running an nvidia 9800, but every little bit helps.
Now if I can just get around to setting up the PS3 again...
Thank you for all your effort. It is definitely for a good cause.
