Re: Cant get it tos tart folding

You can restrict the number of threads used by Folding, for example to 12 threads - Advanced Control -> Configure -> Slots -> click cpu then Edit, read the descriptions, enter the number of threads you want to use, OK, Save. That should do the trick.

Re: core tempereature reaching 90 C

You can open the case of your PC and/or otherwise improve airflow.
And you can lower the # of threads used by Folding - in Advanced Control -> Configure -> Slots -> click cpu then Edit, read the descriptions, enter the number of threads you want to use, OK, Save, done.

Re: Important feedback from a new user/donor

Possibly 3. Add a note somewhere recommending not to use the Web control (or as rarely as possible) right now as its constant queries for updates clutter the already overloaded servers. And/or why not even suspend the whole point thing until there is some capacity reserve for that? Its usual purpos...

Re: User stats and Team membership

It can take a while until it shows. I had to wait 1-2 days, too. It is probably updated only once a day or less, with a batch.

Linus Tech Tips

Maybe someone should send the word that Folding needs rather more servers than more CPU/GPU right now?
LTT just assembled a monster (dual Xeon with 6 Titan) for Folding and called people to do the same. They could as well have set up a few servers, no?

Re: No Folding Has Started

"No WUs available for this configuration" just means that the server doesn't have any WU for your system right now, that is, the second when your client asked. It is a very frequent occurrence these days, apparently, as so many people want to help that the servers can't generate WUs fast e...

Re: CPU idle (gets no jobs)

Hi Jesse_V and ajm Does this mean that everything is ok but there is no work to be allocated? I am new, two days ago I started operation easily, and the next day for half a day nothing happened (the website refreshed every few seconds), today the CPU is not working and the GPU is working. Yes I gue...

Re: CPU idle (gets no jobs)

As I recall from several years ago (and things could have changed, I could be wrong) the stats system runs a daily script that updates the information. Updating the numbers is time-consuming, so its done all at once and as a batch. You should see your name tomorrow, I think. Makes sense. OK I'll wa...

Re: CPU idle (gets no jobs)

As for the stats, is it possible that the system gave me the passkey of an already existing user called ajm? The passkey is a tied to the combination of your username and email address. It won't give you someone else's passkey, since the passkey is supposed to be a secret. Then there is a glitch so...

Re: CPU idle (gets no jobs)

Thank you Jesse_V!
The log contains 10 occurrences of "No WUs available for this configuration", so I guess I have my answer. I'll just leave the system running.

Re: CPU idle (gets no jobs)

Hello anandhanju, Thanks! How do I find the logfile (win10)? I found something called logfile_01.txt in C:\Users\AJM\AppData\Roaming\FAHClient\work\02 but that doesn't seem to be useful. Hello Jesse_V, Thank you! I created this username (ajm) and got a passkey that I activated. Before checking the s...

CPU idle (gets no jobs)

I installed Folding yesterday, that is some 18 hours ago (and the PC has been running constantly since then). It went smooth and within a couple minutes, I had a job for the CPU and another one for the GPU. When the CPU job was over (maybe 3 hours later), I checked the "See stats" and foun...
