1) Message boards : Number crunching : problem with core 2 duo not running both cores (Message 31204) Posted 15 Nov 2006 by Changeling Post: Hello all, just got a new computer, going through the normal processes, delete junk, add needed programs, set up boinc...etc. I'm running seti@home and rosetta@home split 50/50. I went to both preferences and switched to "work" after setting the use processor number to 4 (I didn't know if it had hyper threading) in both projects. Everything was fine, 2 work units running at the same time, until sometime around noon today, when for no apparent reason it stopped running 2 units and started running just one. I got an over committed message, but if the computer was running both cores this wouldn't be a problem. Anybody have any ideas? The comp is a core 2 duo 2.0ghz with 4 mb cache, 2 gig memory Any help appreciated!! Changeling
2) Message boards : Number crunching : Give credit where credits due (Message 13709) Posted 14 Apr 2006 by Changeling Post: 20 credits is very nice. I would have been happy with 14. Was obviously seeing this problem a little. I like the way Rosetta is run. :-) My 98se box is a legacy computer for several programs. I'm willing to upgrade the memory to 512mb for Rosetta, but not spend any more money on Microsoft OS's. Eventually I will try to use it as a dual boot for 98 and linux, so I can learn linux. Once I get a couple of personal goals in Seti@home(should be soon) I will be switching more time over to Rosetta. Keep up the good show.
