Because they expire on 2 august, the ones we're running now apparently expire on the 2 feb..........

Oh.

Oh shit! I didn't read it that way! I taught that the clients that we are folding with were to expire on August 2nd.

Damn.

And no, I haven't started to OC the E8400 yet. I had a couple of beers at my rugby club last night, was exploring the BIOS because it's totally different from my Asus, decided not to take that on while I was half-buzzed and tired. I'd planted everything in my case before I went, but didn't get to boot it before I had to go. Once I start that, I'll move over to the thread in oc'ing going on about the P35-DS3L. Annoy everyone there with my trials and tribulations.

Tells you something that the 1st thing I tried to run was FaH, huh. But it's also a good stress test.

Problem solved. My clock was slightly out of whack, system thought it was Feb 2nd, and gave me a SMP beta client expired error.

Whew, not my fault. Off to the site to try to find new beta. Then to do some reading in the Mobo manual in prep for OC work. Guess I should change my sig, huh.

The clock - I remember that one now... good luck with your oc'ing, and fire your questions!

It would appear that the FAH download page is a bit busy this evening........

Wonder why????

Would have been nice to see a bit of a heads up on the forum site, but I don't remember seeing anything over the last week...... :(

Fixed my FaH problems, had a preliminary blast at OC. Check sig. Coretemp reports 35 and 36 degrees, lol. Gotta change where my SpotCool is mounted, can't close the case right now, that will probably cost me a couple of degrees. Will move this to OC thread now.

Well, now my FahMon isn't reporting PPD since I got new SMP Beta6. Anyone else with the same problem?

Just delete the client from inside the FahMon window, and add the new one.

New client seems to perform as expected inside the two vmware instances on the quad (2500+ PPD per instance on 2605), but I either got a buggy 2605 when I re-installed the new client on the 6420, or I screwed something up with the installation.... I'm only seeing about 1600 PPD on a 2605 with that one.

I'm going to let it run through this one WU to see if the next one is back to the normal 2400 PPD, but I suspect I'll do better with a fresh install.

I won't be able to update the client until sunday night. I hope that my rigs are still running fine... thanks for all the info though.
