How do I run two instances of Prime95???

[gozulin]

When I try to open a second instance of prime95, it looks like it's going to open then disappears. Am I missing something or am I witnessing a bug?

You tell me!

check out the zebo's sticky.

his is a two folder method.

what i do is...

i create two shortcuts for prime and at the end of the target of the first one add -a0 for the first shortcut and add -a1 at the end of the second shortcut.

Yes, the two folder method works. At my current frequency, a little after 5 minutes or so, one of the instances crashes while the other merrily chugs along. I thought prime was supposed to give a calculating error, not crash

Also, which of the 3 torture tests should I run? I've been running the 2nd one but should I run the first or 2nd one?

download S&M v1.7.6 I think it is a much better program than prime, and it does both cores automatically.

thanks, i'll give it a try.
