2) Questions and Answers : Windows : O.K. To Change Computer? (Message 87717) Posted 21 Nov 2017 by dave Post: I think I'd like to put my Rosetta thing onto a different computer. And maybe take it off this one. Can I do that or should I restart the whole process on that computer, make a whole new thing there?
3) Questions and Answers : Wish list : How Can I Understand More? (Message 87700) Posted 16 Nov 2017 by dave Post: My machine is working away and shows those twisting, turning, molecules as it does it. Which is very nice. But I understand nothing of what it is doing beyond that. I mean I know it is helping to find the shape of molecule, a protein, but I know no more: what calculations it is doing and how they help, what molecule it is working on and what it does.... nothing. And I initially signed the machine up for working on rare diseases or something and after a few days it appeared to me it was doing nothing. So I signed it up for this, rosetta@home. Now I'm unaware of the current situation. Is it still working on that other thing or is it not? Was it ever? There's the question of tasks. I see screen messages that there's no tasks sometimes. I don't know the significance of that, whether I should take some action. Is there some place where I can see an overview of what is going on with my machine and where I can perhaps learn more about particular activities it participates in?
4) Questions and Answers : Windows : From Whence Cometh The Tasks? (Message 87625) Posted 6 Nov 2017 by dave Post: I was with some other project for a week or two (since beginning) and finally noticed my computer would sometimes report 'no tasks'. It was apparently doing nothing. So I just now joined the Rosetta@home thing. And I see I've still no tasks. Will this happen in the fullness of time or should I be doing something about it? regards, ab
