I have in the past been able to get over 20,000 PPD. I am only getting about 12 to 13,000. I am not running Setpriority, should I be? Do I need a passkey? Is that what is missing? I am running Windows 7 64-bit on my main PC. I would like to get more PPD for the chimp challenge. My two 260's are only getting about 4,000 PPD each and they are both overclocked.

4,000 ppd for a 260 is really low , They might have downclocked , Check precesion, a restart will be needed to correct this issue. and you should use set priority if you have a cpu client running also.The gpu clients should be set higher.

What did you do on 8 April? Your ppd took a nose dive then. Recovered 2 days
later to about 55% of previous normal ppd.

April 8th may have been when I added -advmethods to my SMP client as I was getting no work for it. I guess I will download setpriority and give it a go.

Looking at your points per wu, it doesn't look like you're getting bonus points on SMP. 1. Where did you add the -advmethods flag? 2. Do you know if you have been getting A3 wu's? 3. Does HFM.net show a drastically different PPD than what you are getting?

I have setpriority (downloaded from cnet) running now. Hopefully my PPD will recover in time for CC...

I added -advmethods on the command line of the shortcut I use to run it: C:\FAH\Folding@home-Win32-x86.exe -smp -advmethods The log shows fahcore_a3.exe required/found what is HFM.net. I went to www.hfm.net and got a financial website. & thanks.

you don't need -advmethods to get core A3 wu's, just the right client and -smp as the flag

Do you have a passkey on your smp client? Without it you won´t receive the bonus points ond only get the low base points

Sounds to me like you should subtract -advmethods and see if you get your PPD back.

+1. You said you're not using a password so you absolutely need one with SMP folding to get bonus points.

yeah I too have been getting about half my normal points using -advmethods, since I popped it on to get WUs when -smp was having issues.

Yeah, I seem to be having the same trouble. I had my main rig folding with the flags -smp and -advmethods with no problems. I was getting around 3000 points with the bonus. Now, yesterday, I got my 2nd rig going with a Q6600 and same flags set and my main rigs points have dropped on the bonuses for some reason. I'm still getting the same times but the bonuses have dropped off by about a 1000-1500 points. My Q6600 at 3.0ghz gets more points then my Q9650 at 4.0ghz with the bonuses. I'm clueless as to what the problem is. Hopefully, it's just HFM reporting the wrong bonus points or something. EDIT: At least, I thought I was getting around 3000 points with the bonuses per WU. What does everyone else with a quad average? Maybe I'm just losing my mind.....
