No More Folding

Sorry guys I’ve stopped folding as of last night

I was just cleaning out my front vent for better air flow, sorting some more cables and clearing off the paste of the cpu and replacing it with AS5, for no apparent reason my HSF clip snapped.. must have been weak as it was put on properly, but when i put it back one of the clips has snapped.

Subsequently i don’t have a HSF thats seated or making proper contact with the processor so my pc is off.

I was going to get a new HSF, as i was thinking about it anyway, problem is i don’t see the point as i’m going to be away on holiday for a month as of tuesday (away from home).

So my pc is not on, let alone running F@H :good:

Just using my 450Mhz server to post and check mail, i think ive got it running on my 2 450Mhz pc’s, but thats about it :slight_smile:

So i’ll be back with F@H next year, mid january :chk:

That sucks. Oh well, guess you can just kick back and relax.

Yeh well, I’m away for a month anyway, so only 3 days before i go away for 5 1/2 weeks anyway, so it doesn’t really matter too much.

Problem is i was hoping on leaving my pc on over xmas, whilst other people are in the house..

None the less, have a gd xmas :slight_smile:

Sorry to hear that merry xmas!

5

yeah, since I came back with a vengence! and reclaimed by spot!

Nope i’m still ahead of you at the moment..

  • my 64 has only done one WU lol

Looks like i’m going to have to get a working HSF anyway as my 64 now runs as my server, and my 450mhz server is running as a firewall. No internet unless my computer is on.

Enjoy overtaking me anyway :smiley:

Ha wait till I get my computers netowrked properly and i shud overtake NF and Waffle with my AXP 2700 and Duron both running. Mwahahahah. Won’t beat anyone else though.

Afta xmas I’ll have a pentium four and athlon xp 3200+ runnin possibly a turd pentium 2 laptop running it too

9

There goes my celebration down the drain…

10

lol - It won’t b this pentium 4 is turd and I can’t see my xp doin much and as for the p2 - may aswell not run it

11

I’m gonna talk to my school’s tech teacher about taking some of the old IBM system’s off his hands when I take another one of his classes In a few months

12

Even with a P2 you should still be able to knock up some extra WUs a points.

13

Addis remember wen we went to the lrc for the old pcs?

14

At Easter my school s giving out about 20 733mhz PC’s. I’m gonna grab as many as I can get. I’ve already got a crappy 866mhz PIII and a totally s*** 200mhz Cyrix.

15

Oh yea I can’t believe we were actualy gonna do that. If I would have got it I would have used it as a file server or a firewall and would have then put f@h on it.

You lucky son if a :swear:.
