OK. Moved my main rig from OGR to Seti (Barton 3200). Maybe move a couple Celeron 1.3A's over next week.

Will help out 'til this is closed.

Speaking of "closed," what other DC projects well lend themselves to P4 machines? Besides SoB, that is.

Kokomo,

DPAD smokes on a P4 (and the client is very very simple to setup & use)

The team is small, tight knit. In 6th place and moving up strong! At our current output we are going to be number one in about a year and a half. But even a few pc's can sway that number noticeably .

Let me know if you would like more info (as to the project goals and such)

Linky for info!

Yeah Kokomo, Overkiller is right!!! DPAD is great and at our current output we'll be nr. one in a while. Most of the teams in from of us has a pretty big lead, but we're allready outproducing most of them!!! With some extra crunching power, well we'll be nr. 1 in a couple of months (i hope)... :Q

So join DPAD and let the goodtimes roll!!!

 

[Freewolf]

My projects of choice other then seti are dpad, TSC, and d2ol.

 

[Kokomo]

Overkiller, amdxborg, Freewolf:

DPAD looks very interesting, will check it out today. Care to speculate on what kind of output the following would produce?

2 P4C 2.8s, 1 P4C 3.0, 1 2x2.4 Xeon, 1 P4P (Prescott) 2.8 <---not a misprint, will be available for DC a week from today, maybe next weekend. See my SisSoftware Sandra post under General Hardware. :beer:

 

[Freewolf]

No idea but it would be a lot .

 

[GunDog]

Added a celery633 to the mix. Will only do 1 wu day but thats 1 more than we had.

First WU sent in. I can see that this is going to becom e quite addicting.

Hopefully a lot will get in overnight.

Congrats on the WU, and welcome aboard :beer:

As for addiction, don't bother with SETI Anonymous. It's too late --- you're hooked. The meetings were boring anyway

 

[merlocka]

Average about 2:28 per WU for a 2200MHz Barton. Is this typical?

What could I expect from Celeron 1.3A's w/ 133MHz SDRAM?

 

[Zeipher]

My Barton does one every 2:16 and it's at 2365 MHz.

So I guess that it sounds normal.

 

[jalaram]

I added my Epia (I know... not much) to SETI and may set up my laptop. How do I know how much each cpu is churning out?

I had a 66mhz PII300 that did about 1.3 WU's per day so that celery should do at least 2.5, unless it's not on 24hrs of course!

Is Seti Queue the answer??

I am getting the Managing Directors old Sony Vaio 700mhz PIII, if it doesn't heat it up too much will run it on this too

 

[Assimilator1]

That depends on many variables with those Tualatin Celerons ,they can be quite fast as they are near as dammit PIIIs (unlike earlier ones),I'll give you a few examples.
My sons rig is a Tualatin 1.1A GHz Celeron on a BX chipset ,overclocked FSB to 126MHz ,1.39GHz ,his rig does them in about 5hrs
My mates old rig ,same cpu on a VIA chipset,133FSB ,1.46GHz gave WU times of 5.5hrs! ,high latency in the VIA chipset would seem to be the culprit.
The same rig at def clock did WUs in 6.5hrs ,slower than a PIII 933
Both rigs ran the RAM at CAS 2-2-2

Re your Barton ,I would say that seems a tad on the slow side ,your matching my Tbred & 2.04GHz ,what chipset was that on?

 

[JWMiddleton]

Well, I replaced a problem mobo yesterday and increased production on that rig from <3 to over 6 WUs per day. I also picked up an Asus A7N8X and an AMD 2500+ Barton. When the memory gets here I'll get it crunchin' as well!

 

[Gasaraki88]

Have a P4 3.3ghz with 1g ram on SETI now.

Awsome rig on SETI!

 

[poopyman67]

Hey you guys, I just joined! To commemerate, I installed Seti@home on 6 comupters:

1 P4 2.6Ghz (6-10hrs a day)
2 AMD 1800+'s (8hrs a day)
3 P3 800Mhz's (8hrs a day)

I will soon be installing in on about 25(about 20 are P3's, the rest are the AMDs) others, and I'm telling all my friends to join. (Look out for zebo94551)

In a few weeks, I'll be able to install it on about 8 more computers.... Just gotta wait for
'em to come in!

OH CRUD! Thats too late!! NOO!!!

BTW: can someone tell me how to make it so seti starts when the computers are booted up?? because they're turned off, and I won't be able to turn them on for a while. Is there some sort of batch file?? Thx!!

What os are they running?

 

[poopyman67]

windows 98se, why???? btw: do u know a batch file that would automatically start the program @ start up??

 

[Freewolf]

The one I have is for XP. Robor sent it to me and it works quite well but I don't know of one for 98, sorry maybe some of the other guys can help.

It's never too late!

Awsome start....and looks like you're getting the bug!

Hello and welcome to the TeAm, poopyman67!

Concerning starting S@H up automatically with Windows98:

You will end up with a short-cut in your startup folder if you follow the step-by-step directions here:

http://www.gygabite.com/smokeball/sigline.htm

The following parts of the above instruction set are especially important when installing SetiDriver and the CLI Client on Windows98 machines:

Step 9: Win9x/Me Users should navigate to the C:\Windows\System directory and find the "Conagent.exe" file. Right-click it, and choose Properties. Navigate the tabs in properties until you find "Warn if Still Active". Uncheck this option. This prevents some shutdown difficulties on certain platforms. This step is unnecessary for Win2K or WinXP users.

Step 10: Navigate to Control Panel -> Display Properties. If you are using Win9x/ME, change your screen saver to "Blank Screen". If you are using Win2K, change your screen saver to "Default screen saver", WindowsXP change your screen saver to ?Blank?.

Step 11: Navigate to Control Panel -> Power Options Properties. Change the power options for Hard Disk and System Standby to "Never". Change the power option for Monitor to whatever you wish, as it does not affect Seti@Home.

Step 12: Create a shortcut to the SetiDriver.exe file. Change the shortcut's properties to "Run Minimized". Place this shortcut in the StartUp folder of your Start menu.

The situation may be you need to install Seti as a Service if the machines are setup in such a way that someone has to logon before windows starts. Is that your situation?

 

[poopyman67]

yeah, with the computers im talking about, they start up w/the logon screen. I installed the regular GUI client on the 4(not including my own personal computer) I've installed it on, but I'll install the command-line one on the others, since its faster! Thanks for the link tho! I'll make sure I do that thing 2!!

 

[Smoke]

Here is the best info I could find on installing Seti to run as a Service on a WinX machine.

I have not used it myself. Maybe someone else can jump in here to help out. That link was found on the Ars Technica web site.

Let us know if it helps out ... then you could become our WIN98 Service Install Expert.

 

[poopyman67]

Thanks Smoke! I think this reg key should do it:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
seticlient: REG_SZ : C:\Program Files\SETI@home\SETI@home.exe -min

or actually, i would want it to be setidriver on some machines...

Thanks for the info tho!!! By tomorrow, i should have atleast another 6-10 computers cooking with seti running by 2morrow!

To bad I can't access the server, cause then I could tell it to install the program then run in as each computer logs into the server.... all it would take is a little sendkeys here and there...

 

[MoFunk]

I added a couple more pc's (11x2.4 P4's). Not sure how long work will let them go. So at work I have 2x1.8's and 20x2.4's. Will keep an eye on my queue to see how many WU's were pumping out now!
