One rig down

[bwm]

I rig down, 10K PPD loss. No big deal for PPD loss but it pisses me off because I know its something I installed during a time when I wasn't mentally suited. Wrong mode I guess ya might call it. Tried some troubleshooting tonight but a family matter far exceeds folding in importance to me until further notice.

bad, but less worse than main riggie missing :D

Yeah, I saw that. Man you go through rigs like one aver week or two

How do ya expect to climb at something approaching a steady rate going thataway?
Am I gonna have ta hound yer ass 24/7 again???

Not sure if I just got lucky or not, I think just lucky.
The rig that was is back up again at full steam.
Had a GPU usin that kept crashing and making the damn mouse pointer
wander off into never never land so I dumped it. A fresh one is working smoothly, so here's hoping.

This rig is still "off" a bit, not its usual self, but the install is 2 years old and been through a lot of hardware changes and horsing around. Prolly need to wipe the drive clean and install from scratch to make it purr again.

Yes, I/we know. And I ain't help'n

And crusty rotten old Ph.Ds' who reply to two of
their own posts, now that's getting pretty bad.
Shameful. Embarasing. I'll bury my head in sand for a week.

If the troublemaker makes it through a second night of balls to the wall work then I think it safe to consider that problem solved. G'night y'all.

I'm convinced the problem is fixed and the culprit caught in the act so anyone else who might be effected by this can get the POS off their rigs. Its a metcafe media player or recorder. AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE. OBVIOUS SYMPTOMS INCLUDING MOUSE AND KEYBOARD FREEZING UP FOR OFTEN AS LONG AS 30 SECONDS. Folding itself keeps right on going but with no control over the mouse and keyboard. The later two items will eventually be released for reasons unknown and folding resumes. I've been looking for the uninstall for it but can't find it as it seems to installed as a service..
