Join the SatelliteGuys Folding@Home Team!

tried leaving it run overnight again... looks like it might be working again... will have to keep an eye on it. Otherwise, I'll just boot into vista when I'm heading off to work... (Vista always seemed to get the job done, that sounds SO wrong!)

I'm wondering if some of Estonia's top producers are hit with the same problem I am. We both fell off around the 4th...


edit:
YUP, after the most recent update, looks like I am back in the game... no clue as to what was wrong, but glad to be producing again!

If you have any trouble with Win7 at all, it is most likely a driver issue. Be sure to look for updated video, network, and chipset drivers for your machine specifically for Windows 7.

As I said before, I have been folding on two different Windows 7 machines since the RTM became available in August and have not had any problems with the GPU console client. In fact I am getting about 10 to 20% better production.

Sorry, I've been away from the Board for a while, and missed a few things, like Monday's TechChat, and this:

Congrats to SatinKzo for reaching 7 Million Points. :clap

Great Performances, SatinKzo!!! I hope to join you in a month or so, dust bunnies permitting.

I just applied the November Windows XP patches on my GPU2 clients; so far, no issues. :up

Is it common for everyone to stop getting points?

It is common for me to have a machine stop folding and I have to restart it. But, if you are folding then you should get points. Check to make sure you are the one listed as the user and satelliteguys is the team.

There are posts about this over on the Folding Forum. It may be related to Stanford installing new servers. I'm still getting and Stanford is still uploading WUs, we're just not seeing the results. Here's what Stanford has for me on their site:

I know that I've been submitting WUs all day according to my FAHLOG files.

It is a plot to keep us from cracking the top 100... No more points, we are frozen at 101!!!!!

stats hiccup -- we're on it

There was a problem with the stats server over the night. We got to it first thing in the morning (around 6:30am pacific time), but it looks like a few stats updates were missed. The missed data is backed up on another machine and we can re-enter it. However, we typically take a couple of days to re-enter it, to make sure it is done right.
So, the bottom line is that the stats system is back up, will we recredit some missing WUs not credited over the night, but this will take a couple of days to complete. Sorry for the delay on the recredit, but it's good to make sure we do it right, rather than in a rush.

I dont know, but I'm getting pretty tired of their constant Bullsh!t problems GPU EUE's, Server problems, I'm beginning to wonder what kind of a ship their running. FIX THE GPU PROBLEM.......... DAMN

On the cusp of looking for a new distributed computing project myself. Perhaps the people in Berkley are better equipped for such projects, maybe something like Rosetta@home

 

[nhra328z]

If you guys wanna jump, I'm game... I've got stuff planned for the future!

As long as we keep on projects that help on Alzheimers and Breast Cancer...

Exactly. These two examples happen to hit close to home, but all of the potential benefits make it worthwhile to me.

Fold On!

Will probably stick around with Sanford for now... but if FAH fails again in the next few weeks, I dunno...

 

[Foxbat]

I am starting to get fed up with my ATI cards. I came home and found both rigs's GPU clients idle, one with a VU recovery, the other hit an EUE and was in a 24-hour time-out. Grrr™

Well, it looks like our points are being credited properly again. Now we just need to get credit for the day and a half that has not been credited. About a week to go before hitting #100.

Looks like we all got screwed on those points.....but hey Stanford doesnt have to pay our electric bill so they dont care.:rant:

 

[riffjim4069]

It's not much, but starting next week I have a PS3 that will folding 24x7 for the next three months.

 

[Voyager6]

Less than five days until we pass Team PSM for #100.
Still no sign of our lost points.

 

[nhra328z]

We actually got points on the 12pm update today!

 

[Voyager6]

Congrats to Scorpion.sting for reaching 12 Million Points.

 

[Voyager6]

Satguys are still Folding away. 3.5 days until we pass Team PSM and move into the Top 100.:up
