My work computer is a Pentium 4 3.00, which can run two instances of F@H simultaneously. I did that for a while, but felt it slowed my computer down unacceptably so I eliminated one of the services.

Can I set up a second instance of F@H (as a service, preferably) so that it only runs in the off hours? How to do this?

Operating system is Win XP Hiome, system has 1.5 GB of RAM.

With Task Scheduling you can set a task to only run after the computer is idle for so many minutes. Not sure if the other client running will make the computer never be idle :confused:

You can also set a task to start and stop at certain times.
