Ken or anyone can you help?

Post by mikemean »

Ok, this is not too important, but I am running Seti@Home and Folding@Home bothe at the same time, all day ever day (except when playing Quake 3 or Unreal Tournament). No problems with Folding@Home, but for the last 87 hours and 27 minutes Seti@Home is still processing the same unit. Could this be because it is a really big unit or because I have 2 things that are always using the processor at the same time for data analysis?
COMP SPECS
I have a Gateway Essential (bad mistake, can't put any cards in the pci slots because they don't fit inside the case). ANYWAY, the processor is a Celeron 633 and I have 128 MB RAM. The audio and video are on the mobo. WinMe.
Thanks :eek:

Could be a big unit. But really your splitting the work the cpu has to do between the two programs. So naturally things will slow down.
Don’t feel bad p2 at 400 with 256mb ram.and I’m doing the 3 of them for now.

They told (us) to open up the Embassy, or "we'll blow you away." And then they looked up and saw the Marines on the roof with these really big guns, and they said in Somali, "Igaralli ahow," which means "Excuse me, I didn't mean it, my mistake".
