Welcome to the TeAm, Shmee! :)

If you start feeling adventurous, you can try installing a MilkyWay optimized app for your CPU. :sneaky: But I should mention that the SSE 4.1 Linux x64 app caused WUs to fail on my Q9400. :\

weeee, i am officially farming milkyway. got my second box set up at home now so i can monitor it in case it needs attention. the last 21 hours it was having some config issues and it couldnt do any work units because it thought i didnt allocate it any hard disk space to use. it's working now though! all i need to do now is get the heat in here under control LOL
