Re: General advice for newbie

Thanks a lot for that. Now I see where the flags are set :). I'm going to wait some time so I've got some folding done on the GPU client and I've got a few days off work to set it all up before trying the SMP beta client.

Thanks

Re: General advice for newbie

I checked and I was running them as system tray version. What I hadn't realised is that they started up automatically when I booted up the computer but didn't show the icon in the task bar. I then went and manually started all 4 so had, apparently, 8 instances running in task manager :) It actually ...

Re: General advice for newbie

So I have a problem then? Any ideas on how to sort it? Each client is running on a different ID and I did follow all instruction for the 'Installation for a multi-CPU system (Console version)'?

Re: General advice for newbie

Thanks for all info. I'm now running 4 instances of the console version but I want to make sure they are all working on different stuff. If I right click on each in turn and choose Status and then Queue Info all the information under Project is exactly the same but for the Run number. Thats the only...
