exeter_acres Posted October 14, 2003 Posted October 14, 2003 Just a quick heads up...been meaning to post this for a while now... If you have your system set to run a screensaver (not the F@H but other ones) with any graphics on it.... ie: any of the MS ones, a pretty Matrix one...whatever.... most screensavers use close to 100% of your CPU, which means that if your screensaver is going, your Folding is slowed WAY down... just turn the monitor off, or set it in power settings to turn off for you..... Thanks Carry on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
