been tearin that dna up, but seriously if we could just get 5 or 6 more peeps with 800 mhz or higher boxes we could really be contenders here, and Folding doesnt kill your performance either i play bf1942 at 40-80 fps with it running

Well isn't he just special :D


OK , I just downloaded the software and set it up . A long time ago I was folding . You think this will add to my old numbers or is a new identity and new stats ? Pretty sure I used the same ID name .

nitro if your talking about the old folding 1.0 then no it don't add to it unfortunately... 2.0 and 3.0 stats are all the same though. that really flamed a lot of people when they went to the new clients and dumped all of the old stats everyone had to start over.

OK, I started folding again. Expect my 1 work unit to double within the week. :D How do you set it up with a firewall(ZA)? I cant get a work packet with it enabled. I checked the box to allow port 8080 in the F@H conrol panel.
