Thanks, ArVee!

Yep - it took Hollywood a little bit to "warm up", but she's knocking out anywhere between 58,000 - as high as 62,000 on average - depending on work units.

She's getting some assistance from Baby Blue - Baby has a core 2 duo and a GTS 250, then the laptop kicks in 2-4,000.

Then yesterday I started tinkering with Kitt to get him back up and running - couldn't stand having that 250 I took out of Hollywood sitting there doing nothing - I got started, and thought, shoot, Sun, why settle for the Pentium 4 when you have the motherboard from Hollywood with the core 2 duo just sitting there. So I installed that in Kitt as well. He's been purring away since about 3:30 yesterday afternoon.

Micro - you might want to consider another video card before the golf club ;-)

Sun :-)

Only that there's nothing to worry about, Sun. v7 doesn't recognize G92 cards fully only in that it doesn't do the points calculation estimates, but everything else is ok. I have 7 of them going here and as long as I see they're running 1050x's with frame times of 50-53 seconds (or faster with the GTX's) I know all is well and I'm getting 5000 and 6300 ppd respectively. You'll see in the left hand blocks that it identifies the cards ok, runs them, just does everything except acknowledge that they're points-worthy, but if the card's completing and ul'ing the WU's, you're getting the points.

Hollywood's a pro, just slowly warms up to her task. Cool
