Some serious folding power, but down...
 

A friend of me, has a dual Xeon. This means HT *2 and thus 4 CPU's.

But he can't get it to work on all 4 of them, only one has full load. How can he make it run on all 4 ? Just a copy from the F éh folder wasn't enough...

And to say it with his words:

Does Folding@home run on dual processor machines?

Yes, you can. Additional processors must run the console version (with the "-local" command-line argument if run on Windows). First, make additional directories for each processor and copy the FAH3Console executable file into each. Then configure them with the -config switch, filling in settings for each. It is very important to make sure that under the "Advanced Settings" option each copy is given a unique machine ID (from 1 to 8). The first copy will default to a machine ID of 1, so additional copies should be given IDs of 2, 3, 4, etc. Each may then be run out of their installed directory, using the -local switch on windows. Instances should be attached to different processors, using whatever mechanism your OS provides for this purpose (e.g. Task Manager on Windows).

you rule !

no actually I FAQ...:rolleyes:

change machine ID during setup and run with the -local tag to avoid the F@H looking at the registry for settings :)

vewwy easy, just look up "how to fold on HT CPU's" ;)


under what name is this friend folding?
