Brentington Posted July 5, 2003 Posted July 5, 2003 Ok, I don't know if this has happened to anyone else but, whenever I overclock my processor F@h just sits there and "sleeps" thats what it says when you hold the mouse cursor over it. So, from my usual 3.2 Ghz, I am locked in at 2.9Ghz and it seems to be working fine. For about a months time I sat there and had it overclocked at 3.2Ghz, and it worked fine, but after that it pulls this "sleeping" junk. Does anybody know anything about this? Any for of input would be greatly appreciated. Thanx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
d3bruts1d Posted July 5, 2003 Posted July 5, 2003 Have you tried the command line version? I don't use the GUI, so cant help out much with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazwegion Posted July 6, 2003 Posted July 6, 2003 Are you running any other processes at the same time (which you may or may not have been added in the last month)? I tried to run Seti@home concurrently with F@h, and found that it looked like it was cruising but after an hour had got nowhere (maybe sleeping?). Anyways I opened the configure option screen (from right clicking on the icon in taskbar) and set the core priority to its highest (in advanced section), and while I was there, I also disabled the highly optimized assembly code, you can also set your CPU usage percentage from this option screen. The long & the short of it, I now could run them both (but don't anymore - too slow!). Just a suggestion. B) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
smeghead009 Posted July 6, 2003 Posted July 6, 2003 you could try uninstalling/reinstalling it, that usually fixes 90% of problems, you couls also ask on the Folding@home forum http://forum.folding-community.org/ good luck with your problem, dont get frustrared though, just calm down with a tall glass of milk .

Brentington Posted July 6, 2003 Posted July 6, 2003 I'm not sure what version I am running. It could be the GUI. How can I tell? Right now when I click on About it says Version 3.24 Built Dec 19, 2002. Whats the difference in versions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Propane Posted July 6, 2003 Posted July 6, 2003 command line runs in a DOS console or the shell (if running linux) - sence it dosent have to compute anything extra you get more WU per hour or day. My recomendation - switch to the CLI (Command Line Interface if you dont know yet) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
