Quad core

Running 2 instances of win SMP both from different folders on my pc (different drives as it happens) Quad @ 3.15ghz

Should i set them up with different machine i.d's when running the install bat file?? I just set them up as machine 1 on both

I dumped 2 WU's earlier today but only 1 seems to have shown up??

Stanford is also only showning 1 cpu??

They need their own ID.

bugger - will redo now!

edit - done - deleted config file and set up as machine 1 and machine 2 - carried on with WU also. Lost only one WU then before i realised!!

Thanks Cob

well it's running two instances but will keep an eye on it. just under 3k per day it's predicting - would have thought it would be a bit more since my E6600 did approx 1700 a day at the same speed

How much of a quad-core do a pair of WinSMP clients use?

in terms of cpu output 100% across all 4 cores 24/7

hmm- dumped 2 x 1760 pointers about 3am this morning but only one showing up again. I have both win smp's running machine 1 and machine 2 id.

Stanford is now showing 2 cpu's running but the stats only show 1 WU dumped. Maybe cause i continued with the WU @ 10% and changed the config file at that stage??

A WU usually stores machine ID and other info when you download it, so if you changed the Machine ID after the WU started it will still have the old info.

thx - that was my guess - damn! - 2 WU's free to someone else!!!

seems to be working fine now - thanks for the help - nice dumping 3000 points a day!!!
