Im really proud of you guys folding under the DH name. I know we have never had a folding team of our own so it is really cool to see the DH name under the ATI team.

If anyone reading this is wondering if they should join. Please do. If you cant afford to donate to DH and want to help out then divert that help to this worthy cause. If you are also the kind of person to leave your computer on with MSN running when you arent around then its ideal. Even though you are using power, you are using that power for good !

Get joining up!! I think the chance to win a really cool video card is secondary.

Folding! Yay. Been hoping DH would get behind this. I downloaded the "no nonesense text only" version. Is there any way to not have the taskbar button showing?

Can the CPU version be run on multiple machines with the same username and team number? if so I will put it on a dozen systems at work that are on 10 hrs a day

I have noticed that number changes all the time.. at one time it said under 2 minutes. I also don't know if that number scales directly to performance.. Maybe it changes depending on the type of frame you are working on? Not sure. Plus I took that shot after I was actually using my PC, so I think when it is just idle (like all night) it has more CPU cycles to give to folding.

Too bad they don't have an Nvidia 7900 client.. I'm sure that would be possible if they wanted to make it happen.

it depends on the size of the WU, some can take as little as a few hours, others can take days.

you need to run console versions and assign different ID's too each copy running.

yes, type -service after the program in the CMD prompt. it will then run as a windows service. it should automatically start with XP also.

Not sure if anyone has posted this yet, but here is a guide for getting Folding setup on multi-core computers: GUIDE @ Short-Media

The registry settings need to be modified to run properly in Windows Vista, but I can take a dump of the settings I used if anyone is interested.
