I remember those drives! My first PC I had a 1 GB HD in it. It was the biggest available at the time.

Stanford seems to hate me for some reason.
They gave me another one of those Project 7200 SMP work units. I get a whopping 250 PPD with it, NO multiplier or anything.

I tried again last night at home to turn on SMP folding and they did the same thing to me again.

I turned it back off.

It appears Stanford does not want me FOLDING SMP with my Core 2 Duos.

The only one that I have running is here in my office
and it is project 11041. FAHSPY says I am getting 3200 PPD for it.

Not bad for a small E6750 2.66 Ghz cpu overclocked to 3.5 Ghz

Now why can;t my other machines with BETTER processors get these kind of wu's?

Drives me crazy.

SO, my purchase list now includes TWO hard drives, Two Flash drives and One Optical dvdrw drive.

I discovered I couldn't install Windows 7 on my spare computer with a CDrw drive and the program is on a DVD. Laughing

I am having minor surgery on Monday with my lower spinal column. Two spinal injections to hopefully ease the inflammation of the arthritic spurs in my lower back.

I actually am looking forward to it. I get TWO days off out of it.

Hopefully my machine will get stabilized. I hope so.
That will mean the GPU will keep folding all night and week-end. Since I am not running SMP on it the cpu should be okay.


Have a great Friday and weekend!

Thanks for letting us know, Micro, as you say good news and bad news. Electrical surges on the cause or no idea, just one (or two) of those things? Glad you're at least back up on the folding front. I have you outdone btw, I have a stripped down ver of XPSP2 driving SMP and GPU on you guessed it, a 4.3 gig drive. Back in the day of course that was an absolute monster and cost an arm and a leg. I'm not 103 years old, either. :-)
