Re: Coping with Wind

Microsoft doesn't care - they think that automatic upgrades are a good thing, and have blown off user complaints about that issue for several Windows versions. It's NOT just Folding that gets affected - but it's one of the reasons many or most folks that build dedicated folding machines put those ma...

Re: brand new/few questions

That would be a foldingcoin support question, not a Folding@Home question.

Re: how many points per day is considered good?

For reference, as a participant in the Curecoin and FoldingCoin projects - as of the last couple of months the combination of the 2 on a GTX 1070 or higher is fairly close in compensation value to the value you could achieve with the same GPU by cryptocoin mining with it on the highest mining option...

Re: Run both graphics subsystems at the same time

For Windows, it's trivial - AMD or Intel iGPU doesn't matter. This is one of the VERY FEW things Windows does noticeably better than LINUX does. On Linux, you have to install the drivers for the iGPU first, then manually install the NVidia drivers using the "--no-open-glfiles" option, and ...

Failing since late last night or very early this morning (Pacific time) on any attempt to upload a completed workunit to this server. Generally gets to between 0.7% and 1.5% on the upload, then gives a "transfer failed" message. I've got somewhere around 100 completed workunits that haven'...
