Happy Folding .
 
Rip It Up !
 
Cheers !!!
 

Come on guys, you can do better than this!  Though for now you're in the lead for last place at least...

And not to double post, but I'm going to anyway - My main rig is down - Not sure the extent, but it rebooted, no network, and I can't see one of the drives on it. Trying to analyze it step by step, but in the process have discovered one of the drives isn't being seen by the HDD - And I needed that drive to function as a backup boot to see if it is hardware or software.  *laughs*
 
Wish me luck!

I should be caught up with my projected PPD here in a couple hours.  Bobc36 I am sure should be dropping a massive PPD here pretty soon unless something happened.  But im not too worried =)

Bobc36 is running Bigadv WUs and I just had a look at Stanford Stats and he will drop ~316K on his next update.

 
oh nice

thier it goes he just jumped to 4th place
 
His contest PPD avg will make it look like he is under producing though is my only other concern since Big adv units take a few days to complete so it will still cause the team to lose points.
 
Maybe troy can adjust the points value on him to fix this?

Well, I'm down half of my ppd for at least a day until I can get a PCIE network card. Looks like there's a common issue with the onboard network card on this motherboard.

Woo freaking hoo... But, at least it should be a simple fix.

 
Network will work across USB won't it? do you have a router or hub with a USB port?

Drougnor's kinda like me: it just ain't a contest if everything works right.

I've got a screaming fan bearing on my GTS 250.  I hope it'll keep running through the contest.

I just RMA'd a GTX 470 and getting a GTX 480 in retun soon, should be here Tuesday, Fan will be loud on it too I bet

Hot and loud, but well worth it for the contest

Yea I know very well it will be hot, the heatpipes on the side of it kinda scare me lol, a friend of mine runs 2 x GTX 480 in SLI and he actually said he burnt his finger on them twice by not letting the system cool down enough before working on it.
 
It's one of the reasons I will only be using that card temporary, another is because of the power usage of it.
 
edit: Well I have the GTX 480 installed and surprising its not as hot and loud as I expected....   I might consider keeping it

sorry ladies and gents, seems like I folded the same WU twice (hence the 22,607 point WU). Everything is running 100% now.

 
glad it's fixed

@ Drougnor,
Sorry to hear that you're having a problem with your onboard network. I know that you're a very busy man, but I hope that you will be able to fix this soon.

@ Crezno,
Good to see that you could catch up again!

@ Bobc36,
Let's hope that you're getting P8103 WUs and can catch up.

@ Audiomurphy,
Sorry to hear that you're having problems, I hope that it will keep running now.

@ Everyone,
Troy is aware that teammembers are throttled despite that our team is underproducing, but he has limited free time and he will work on this. So please don't let this hold you back or discourage you, because we have some catching up to do.
 
Being last at the beginning of the contest is nothing new for the Pimps, anyone remember last year? We worked hard and  got back to the top.
So we have some work to do and try to get in the top 4 in next ten days, before the next round of single elimination playoffs begins.

Fold On Pimps !!!

You smack me and I'll bite your hand off.  It might not be full moon anymore, but the instincts stay with me.

That's great to hear, Drougnor !!!

Fellow Foldin Pimps - I find myself in a bit of a quandry.  On my main rig, I fold overnight - usually one SMP - set it to finish after it starts the WU. 
 
Anyway - started it up tonight and it is hung up in the download stage.  The log states "Failed to connect to 171.67.108.60; No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it."
 
I assume that there is a server down at Standford.  Anyone else experiencing this?  I'm going to let it go, and if I wake up at some point in the middle of the night I'll come down and check on it, and see if it has downloaded anything. 

I'm using the V7 client (original) on that particular rig.  It did connect at some point over night and downloaded a WU.  I did notice, in another threat, someone else was having the same (or similar) issue.  Also, when I checked it this morning, the client said it was a 99.99% but HFM said it was only 36%.  When I got my other monitors on, I noticed that the client had stopped unexpectedly.  I ended up having to restart and then start the client/WU back up.  I've checked it remotely a couple of times this morning and all seems well - although, EOC is showing zero points overnight.
