Norton · Oct 9, 2014

Main rig is back running again but have no idea what happened :confused:

Going to leave everything in auto and let it run until tomorrow afternoon before reattach everything to it and put it back on my desk..... no crunching for it anymore until I find a suitable setup to replace it with.

My server is down. Changing cases from a Silverstone TJ something or other to a Cooler Master Storm Trooper. It will miss about 24 hours of contributing. The hard drives should be a LOT cooler in the new case so I'm hoping for less failures/downtime in the future. Going from 2x120mm and 3x80mm fans to 1x200mm, 1x140mm, and 4x120mm fans.

What makes us computer enthusiasts? I got a little excited I threw together the 3570k into the new motherboard intead of being a more productive student. I found that the intel gigabit network adapter refused to function saying code 10. I reinstalled the driver several dozen times in various ways following all the supposed solutions online. I restarted more times than I reinstalled those drivers. I tried old drivers, new drivers, and even tethered a phone to it for internet to check windows update for drivers. I checked the bios. Nothing worked to get my internet working. I gave up deciding the ethernet port was doa.

Today I decided I could do one last test, see if the port worked in linux or if this was truly a windows issue. I turn on the computer to go make a linux usb drive. Low and behold I have internet like magic.

Edit: Got a bsod also for 0x000000d1 which is a driver related issue most probably related to my network driver.
Edit: Or... I just found a little program called blue screen viewer. Allows me to relook at what the bsod was with more detail. It was actually intel rapid storage driver.

Norton · Oct 9, 2014

blue screen view is definitely a good utility to have handy

My main rig survived the day so it's all hooked up again and running. Soooo nice to have both monitors back again! :toast:

Still don't know what happened? :confused:

If it messes up again I should call an exorcist!

It is back up but there's a louder-than-the-rest fan in there that's annoying me. Should be able to fix that in the BIOS though.

Love the new case.

I think your computer's spasm and my computers ethernet problems are related. For how improbable they were both fixed it could be true.

A little photo for the team here. Pictured is my g1620 and 2500k on the rack. Next to it is my athlon 620 and i3-530 of which are both remote rigs. All of this is in my storage room which now needs to have its door open to exhaust precious heat. In the summer it is nice because it stays cool in there and I don't have to listen to the fans.

The c2d 6300 will not be crunching this challenge. I realized I have all my power supplies in use. The 5800k apu is still at its remote location. The soon to be pictured 3570k is at my desk being tested for stability. I also have a little ivy bridge laptop pentium dual core crunching part time. All together for this challenge I will have 22 cores and 2 threads. I am ready!

Any idea what your total power draw is? Just curious is all.

It was a fair bit messier but I almost pulled down a whole motherboard my tugging on the wrong ethernet cable. I decided it was time to reorganize. Should be putting that time elsewhere but I wanted to do it.

That is a good question. I just hooked the surge protector it is all plugged into into my kill-a-watt and I am getting 365w. That is at 100% cpu load and the 750ti is at 100% load. This also includes the monitor.

New cruncher being born. Sorry T.

And My $200 worth of gpu's for my main rig.

theonedub · Oct 10, 2014

Anyone know if there's a WCG forum member here that does cable sleeving? Want to see if someone can sleeve this for my AM1 Cruncher:

^^Looks real good so far Mad :cool:

I never said cabinet. I did once have a cabinet but it wasn't open enough and hard to cable through compared to what you see there.

Nice setups Team! :toast:

I have a project coming soon too!

Details TBA.....

Wonder where that case came from? :rolleyes:

Tallencor · Oct 11, 2014

Working on my full time cruncher now. Man was it ever dirty. Decided to go with Linux Mint. Seems like it has a low footprint. Time will tell. Just checking the drive for errors now and re installing the tim and cooler. I hope I can get a small oc on this old turtle it is'nt oem but it's the chip Im worried about. Oooooo I'm feelin minty. :cool:

I started my first steps with Mint. Still have it on one of my crunchers, the p4, that is in storage. Man would I love to have my little pieced together retro farm back running!!

manofthem · Oct 11, 2014

Speaking of Mint, I want to install some form of Linux on my 4790 rig before the challenge, maybe tomorrow. I was actually talking it with @Tallencor since he mentioned it, and I have zero experience with Linux. It's currently running Win 7 on the single ssd, so I need to learn how to dual boot with Linux (I guess)... :confused:

Lots to learn :rolleyes:

Since you already have a Windows machine...Just jump right in!! Mint is most likely the most user friendly Distro, IMO, out there. Switch it over 100%, the learning curve is not so steep and it will force you to learn more, faster. Instead of having a backup OS to fall back to. When stuck, use the windows machine to look for help. It took me a couple hours to get BOINC running, as a total nube, and have no regrets!! The MAD Cruncher, has UBUNTU on it. That was the logical NEXT step, as opposed to First step.

You will learn to love Mint then will try one, or two, different brands of Ubuntu, 11.10, for instance, and will settle down with a 20% + BOINC output, and happy with your new knowledge!

DO IT!!

It is real easy. Mint is a good choice. You can do everything via a gui that rivals windows.

Hey Matt. The way I see it is lets learn together. Here and Google

This is the idea. One windows for obvious reasons and a Minty fresh one for nadda but Boinc. (well and to learn how to use Linux)<-- I honestly never thought I would say that.
Edit: Holy crap my internet is slow. Downloading the mint torrent 184 Kb a sec 1 hr 55 mins in and 38 mins left. Lol. I have to be to work in 7 hrs but I am not a quitter. lol.
