Welcome back.

How does the 2700 stack up in WU production to the dual 1 Gig P3's???

the 2700 rocks the duallie P3, it doesn't have enough cache to really run 2 processess well.

the Xeon OTOH, if i can get it to run 2 process should be interesting.

the old windows client was easy to set up for dual processors, how to do it with the new client?

I think if you copy the seti driver, and CLI to a different directory you can just start up the second one and they both run.



At least thats how it works with the service install.

Try renaming the long one to something besides setiathome long name ,etc?


Im going to try this on my machine too brb

 

[dxkj]

Worked for me, you just need to delete everything but those two exe, and then if you rename the setiathome exe you just have to browse for it when you start seti driver.


right now I have two processes each takign 49% of the CPU, ASDF and setiathome.etc etc

PlatinumGold asked:

Why not just use one seti driver and set it to run two instances of seti in "Maximum Processes"?
You can also check the box to set processor affinity, which will assign each process to a separate cpu.

i'm not using that seti client anymore. 🙁 i probably should set that one up again. but this new one was soo easy to install and i'm a bit lazy about this things sometimes.

 

[prontospyder]

I'll be starting soon again as the weather cools down here in Colorado. 🙂

 

[Assimilator1]

Cool 🙂

Btw if your not using SETIDriver than to run 2 instances you just have 2 copies of the SETI directory with the SETI exe in it ,then in the command line (of the shortcut) you add -1 & -2 (I think those numbers are right!😱)
