More horsepower Added!!
 (United Kingdom)

Finally i have managed to get my workstation working. I bought it from Ebay about 6 weeks ago and had some issues with network drivers and graphics drivers and have been trying to sort it out, finally i managed to resolve the conflicts and get the beastie up and working.

It's a Dell Precision 470 Workstation:- 2* Xeon 3.2GHz 800MHz 2*2MB HT CPU's with 4GB PC2 4600DDR II

It took a little configuring in my preferences (once I realised that the problem was there) but it is now running 4 Einstein work units simultaneously with an estimated crucnh time of 35 hours a piece, though I reckon they will do in about 14 hours based on the other machines..

 

That should help me build a decent RAC in a reasonable time

Glad to see that much horsepower on E@H.

BoincSynergy shows that there is both a "Jim Franklin" and a "James Franklin".  You might want to straighten out your userids.

Re: More horsepower Added!!

Hi McSummation, Ueah I am aware of the two accounts, the original one (Jim Franklin) I tried to log onto, but for some reason it would not recognise the password I used so after a billion and 1 attempts (ok exaggeration, it was 999,999,999!!) I gave up and re-registered..

I would like to join the two accounts, is there a way this can be done in the Einstein project or is this  a total impossibility?

Certainly is when running BOINC on Ubuntu, I would guess about 30% faster than under Winblows..

Oi Bill..the writing is on the wall fella.. :D
