Quick question or two.

[JB]

I'm running 2 machines with ICS, I've installed the same client on both machines, therefore are these 2 borged?  Also the command line version seems to have been sitting there saying 'completed 0 of 250000 steps (0)' on both machines for about an hour now, shouldn't i at least see a small change?

'Borged' is a loose term applied to machines that you have working for you - a la the Star Trek Borg collectives.  In the strictest sense borging only applies to machines that are not yours, ie that you have assimilated into your folding collective.  But what the heck, we're nice people so let's just say they are borged.

As for the speed of folding, it depends on the particular project and the speed of the machine that is running it.  I am folding a 100 frame WU at the moment (an equivalent Wu to theone you are folding) on an XP2000+ and each frame is taking about 15 minutes when the PC is running nothing else.   When my machine is running something else as well then the speed is affected badly and the frame could take an hour or more.  A frame for the WU you are talking about would mean your score advancing from 0/2500 to 25/2500.

If you want to make sure they are folding correctly then check the log files and look for any error type messages.  Alternatively pause the folding and then restart it.  Final alternative, reboot the machine.  CHeck the logs after each of these to see if it is folding fine.

ty, but how do i pause on the console version?   <_<

The console version automatically shuts down properly if you close the window.

Thanks for that pause answer, I was wondering that myself, I noticed a few lines of text appear as I pressed the close window button but it was too quick for my eyes to register.  :huh:
