Well, I see 6.23 client is released for all, so trying it on my 2nd card again. If this doesn't work I guess I'll try the console version next. 3hrs till this job is done on my 8800gs.. I hate waiting!
Always use the console client. Precious cycles are wasted on the viewer that could otherwise be PPD. You could say it's "all go and no show"....:laugh:
 
I have been folding with the 1.19 core since it came out. My ppd is great and no IDLE clients at all.

Not missing the 1.15... :laugh:

Give the 1.19 a chance. Satisfaction guarantee, no idle back! :D

It's just a lower point WU, still needs to be processed and submitted...it's still research. Sure your PPD might be lower, but it's still decent, I've dropped drastically too with an e8600 @ 4.5, e6300 @ 3.5, 9600GT and 260GTX, I average 11-14k PPD. Generally closer to the 12-13 range.

Grind through it, which if having a score is good to you, not doing any WU's at all is even worse than doing one that gives low points. They'll get it sorted, but there's a reason they want these done, and I'm definately gonna help how I can...if I lose PPD and overall score, oh well...could be worse, I could not be folding at all, and not helping to possibly find a cure. So far the clients have been very stable, so no complaints from me!

:toast:

Kursah, Thank you. Your words = my words. :toast:

Everybody:
Look at this way - PPD were after the economy... but I hope both will be back strong! :roll:

:toast:
 
I'm silly then! I don't even bother using the display anymore. After it finishes this job, think I'll switch all 3 cards over to console then. Back to wingpuguide to read up on installing that one! Looks easy enough though.
Edit: can I keep current job and switch?

No, it's states on the download page,"un-install all previous versions of GPU2" and that includes the work folders. I don't know if you could paste old work over the new client work folder. It would not hurt to try.
 
Actually it states to uninstall any pre 6.20 clients, but I figured good idea to uninstall anyways. My 2nd card is now folding again properly, very nice! Already moved my server with 9800gtx to console client. Will do main rig next. How do I properly pause or shutdown a console client? By the way I prefer the realtime info of the console, much better, thanks for that tip buck and all!
Edit: one last dumb question, any benefit to installing this as a service? Edit2: main rig now converted to console clients. Both cards still folding. Should get my 24hr score back up! Oh and exit, I get it, exit....

New WUs in action

It's getting harder to get the old 480 points WU.

My rigs are folding 384 and 511 points WUs most of the time.

:nutkick:

TPU is getting the kick strait in the "Brazilian Nuts". Will check how other teams are doing...

;)

Still no folding on 2nd card, and I believe now it is an issue with 1.19 and newer drivers. Did some trolling in the fah forum, and found that many ppl are having issues with 2xx cards and a g80 or 92 card as the 2nd. Same problem, eues. So at least I don't feel all alone now!
 
Hang in there guys. Work on any optimizations you can find. We need to tweak every point! I had a sweet spot today. Got 50XX WU's on every card at the same time. Fahmon had me @ 72K, but it only lasted through one WU. Sitting @ 60K PPD right now. We WILL work our way back up there. I got 2 more 9600GSO coming Wednesday. Keep on folding and do not become discouraged. :toast:

i need to play some more....i need to get goth of my GX2's running but it wont do it...it says cards 2-4 need drivers? :confused: iv never ran into this problem before...i got it to work on my GTX's but for some reason i cant even get 2 to work this time.
 
I'm hanging in, gave up tv and games for last 24hrs so I could do this:

I'll probably never get 3rd again, but not bad for 2 cards!
 
Where are you getting those graphs? Sorry I couldn't fold yesterday, had to reinstall windows but I got it going again.

When installing the NV drivers, do you see each core come up on the screen telling you it not windows certified? I count the cores on mine as it flashes to know each card has correct drivers loaded.
 
Is there anyway for vista that you wont need a vga dummy for each card anyone? Have the latest drivers solved this problem yet?
 
my ppd is daown some but everything looks good, I wish we could run 2 sigs, I could keep my folding one.

The drivers have nothing to do with the VGA dummy plug. That's Vista and it's auto sensing of the displays. How many cards are you folding? Do you have a TV and S-Video cables?
 
well i already have a VGA dummy so no need for the s video and such.
 
Well I just did a little upgrade. Went from a P4@3.6ghz/HD 3850AGP to a ASUS P5Q-PRO P45/E5200@3.7ghz/Sapphire HD 4850 512.... Here's a screenie of my viewer. Is that any good? I have no idea what an iter is :wtf: the 62 seems to be my average so far when looking @ it..

As I don't really know ati cards, all I can say is try backing off any overclocks you may have going and see if that fixes it.
 
OK I changed the stock cooler and OC'd the card to the fullest in CCC and heres the performance increase... not bad eh?

If you are using the tray version, change to console. I fixed up all my problems with the console! :toast:

You should drop the Tray Client and go console only. The display slows down the card/PPD and never is a true estimate of production. The console is all performance.
