the11ama Posted December 2, 2004 Posted December 2, 2004 I'm guessing that you have a slow computer. Change the settings in the console to not allow any large WUs and accept timeless WUs. Zigen, Tinker is the name of one of the simulation cores used in Folding@Home. It normally runs large WUs (work units) that normally come with a lot of points.

Folding_Buddha Posted December 2, 2004 Posted December 2, 2004 Maybe you should fold to find out what one is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamikaze_Badger Posted December 4, 2004 Posted December 4, 2004 The TINKERS core is an older F@H core, written in Fortran. PS It's because you use IE. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverfox Posted December 4, 2004 Posted December 4, 2004 if you dont want tinkers, i'll swap them for any crappy gromacs i get! i know ya dont like them, but they are all relative unless there is a time limit on them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemo Posted December 4, 2004 Posted December 4, 2004 You should be happy to get Tinkers- your points/week will be higher than with most Gromacs, plus your AMD system will do better on Tinkers than Gros. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
