is there any way to check if they are different WU's and not the same WU - just to make sure i dont wanna be folding the same thing 4 times

lol sum1 jus posted as i typed checking now

 

[Psycho Sonny]

check in the folding logs (you can do this in FahMon itself) and just check where it starts working on the WU

eg.



as long as at least one of the Run/Clone/Gen numbers are different between the two clients then you are working on different WUs which just belong to the same project.

also check that you have the Extra SSE boost OK. message showing - this means that it's running optimisations which your machine should support and is thus working at maximum efficiency

edit: oh and welcome to the team
edit 2: beaten to it

just checked the numbers in fahmon and all are different thanks guys, i didnt have a clue about this and i didnt want my computers all doing the same thing because of the same user name

its Psycho_Sonny

this PC is an x2 4800 @ 2.5GHZ
the new family pc is an x2 4400 @ stock
the old family pc is a sempron 2800 @ stock

how fast do you think i should climb up the ladder?

i have a laptop that is currently not working i think psu might have gone or sumfin havent looked at it yet, also got 2 computers in my restaurant but they are hardly ever on i might put it on them also

thanks very much for your help guys much appreciated and very fast responses
