Protean Folding Question

When I'm running the folding program, do I have to be connected to the internet or will it upload the results the next time I get online.
I have cable broadband so it's not a problem to stay online. Also I have it set to 80% processor speed and I let it run in the back ground all the time, and wonder what is going to happen in the morning when the system starts running the antivirus and antispyware programs.

I have to turn my monitor on and off by hand.I cant get the power functions to work on it even though I loaded the viewsonic PF790 drivers for it.
That would really piss me off if I had to start over,I'm only at 12% and its been running since 12:23 pm EST.

Monitor standby is controlled in the POWER options in your Computer control panel. I am almost sure it would override just about any monitor and put it into standby weather it was Energy compliant or not.

In fact I have not seen a none energy compliant monitor for some time. I am not sure of the dates but I know the FCC and other implemented regulations on monitors years ago. More then a decade I am sure.....

Anyhows that was not the question you asked and I am not sure exactly what program you are running ? Explain if you please.


NEVER mind I read that yesterday and dismissed it. My son runs part of his computer time to SETI or some BS star crunching computer colony on the internet. He is so stubborn about it he continues to run it when he is playing games online!!!! SHRIEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and grrr.

I pay for my Extended high speed connection and got him DSL so his chit would not slow my chit and I pay for his chit and my chit and he loans out connection bandwidth to some group searching for ET's

First Alien that ever walks up to me is getting a bill handed to him.

Nothing special is going to happen when the antivirus runs (I hope) same thing happens here) it just slows down even more; though I don't run in 80 percent mode.



The loving are the daring!

I agree SETI is a waster of time, but Folding@Home isn't. It's all about simulating how proteins break down and has implications for treatment and prevention of many diseases and conditions.

The F@H client is also very well written, and only uses as much CPU power as is available at the time - it makes no difference to my gaming for instance.

Don't take my word for it. Read about it: <A HREF="http://folding.stanford.edu/faq.html" target="_new">http://folding.stanford.edu/faq.html</A>

I wonder if the phrase "Fold This!!" will catch on in computer circles lol.

I once had a woman tell me she would not fook me unless I had at least a 6 inch dick!! I looked right at her and said I DON'T fold it in half for any chick and left her sitting there PROTEIN deficient.

Finished my first WU today and am now on the second one.
I'm even listed on the team's stats (way down at the bottom).

Thanks,
It dosn't slow things down that much, and if I want to do something that requires a lot of CPU I just put the folding program on pause.

I hav'nt done anything with the other 450MHZ rig yet, I wonder how hard it would be and what kind of cables I'd need to hook them together?
Could I fold on both rigs that way??

Oh yea, since you guys got me straight on the tempature thing I'M RUNNING AT THE FULL CPU SPEED NOW, and the temp is at 50 C but that's with the fan at full RPM.

you can buy you a KVM(keyboard video mouse) adapter/switch which allows you to use the same keyboard,mouse and monitor on multiple machines. i dont know about the modem though i would just set it up to ask you when it finishes a WU if you want to upload then connect that computer to the modem or whatever.
