Split423 Posted June 22, 2004 Posted June 22, 2004 i just built a new rig and its been folding with the spare cycles i have in between testing. at one point yesterday it was completing a frame every 20 mins for a 1091, but now its up to 40 mins? i'm using -advmethods (used to use -forceasm too but every time i restarted the computer, the work unit would start all over?). any help?

road-runner Posted June 22, 2004 Posted June 22, 2004 i just built a new rig and its been folding with the spare cycles i have in between testing. at one point yesterday it was completing a frame every 20 mins for a 1091, but now its up to 40 mins? i'm using -advmethods (used to use -forceasm too but every time i restarted the computer, the work unit would start all over?). any help? Try using control +C to close folding first then restart your machine, also it depends on the amount of time you set it at for a restore or restart point, I think 15 minutes is default on the OCC installer so if you fold 14 minutes and stop it, it will go back to that restart point, I think that is how it works.

tazwegion Posted June 22, 2004 Posted June 22, 2004 Are you using the GUI or 'text console' F@H application? <_< CTRL + C keys required to shutdown the 'text' version properly otherwise... Right click whilst (cursor) hovering over F@H symbol in system tray, and quit Ending F@H inappropriately will/can cause re-starts Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Split423 Posted June 22, 2004 Posted June 22, 2004 well i havent had problems with the restarts since then, but could not using -forceasm be the problem? if so, how could i re-enable it without having to reinstall the program?

Nemo Posted June 22, 2004 Posted June 22, 2004 well i havent had problems with the restarts since then, but could not using -forceasm be the problem? if so, how could i re-enable it without having to reinstall the program? Not having the -forceasm flag would defiinitely explain why you would see it slow way down if you stopped the F@H client and restarted it. I didn't see your answer to Taz's question - which version are using running and how do you launch it? CBass- start a new topic and restate your question so we can address it there. Tell us what version you are running and how you launch it, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Split423 Posted June 22, 2004 Posted June 22, 2004 im using the one that runs in the background(without the text console) and it opens itself at startup. 4.0 version Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemo Posted June 22, 2004 Posted June 22, 2004 Try looking at this thread and see if the explanation of ading flags to your shortcut helps. If you installed as a service using the OCC installer, you'll have to go to the registry. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheeseMan42 Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 whille it may just be the fact that you took off -forceasm, it could also be slowing down because some system processes are taking up cpu usage. its been happening to me lately.
