Nonsense, those G5s are floating point monsters. The IBM Blue Gene/L, the most powerful supercomputer in the world (that we know about) is made of 64,000 of them. G4s aren't too shabby either.

I've been checking those every so often and i can't figure out the logic behind them, they just dont add up to me.
The figures i have been noting down come from the Berkeley team stats page, that hasnt been updated since Tuesday night though.

They are slightly confusing! Plus you have to wait for the whole team listing to load when all you want to see is the summary at the bottom, which is annoying

For WinXP use a file called "setiathome-3.03.i386-winnt-cmdline.exe" It's available HERE
Becasue they've disabled the creation of new users this late in the project you'll need to use a public account. For a public account, use [email protected]. Team Modalot is a sub-team in Team OcUK. I'm sure they'll like the extra WUs.
Download SetiDriver and the client. Run SetiDriver. Set it to cache a bunch of WUs, something like 30. Tell it to Auto Connect. A command window will jump up and ask you some stuff. enter 2 then [email protected]. It'll start to grab WUs. Check the "Hide Processing" box to hide the command window when it's done downloading. Check the "Auto Transmit" and "Use SetiDriver" boxes too. For a HT P4 or an X2, set it to use 2 clients, by default it should see this. Lastly, put a shortcut to SetiDriver in your startup folder in the Start menu. If more than one user uses the machine, put the folder that contains all of this jazz into the shared documents folder in "My Computer." Then add the shortcut to the start menu for all users.
Happy crunching.

Welcome aboard
Assuming you are running a windoze based PC, directly connected to the internet:
Simply download the seti classic client from here http://www.piggott.me.uk/seticlassic
Copy that to a folder say c:\seti
Run the .exe (it is the seti client). It will open a Dos Command window. When prompted for options, as classic has closed to new accounts, enter one of the email addys previously posted perhaps teamodalot at onetel.com, duncan [at] susannah.co.uk (Team Guinness), or there's Sammael's account if you follow the links in http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showpost.php?p=5918805&postcount=1.
If all goes well you should see it download a load of stuff, and then a message saying nothinf further will be dsiplayed. Minimise, but do not close, the Dos window for classic to keep running. You can check it is runing by using the Windows Task Manager >processes - should show CPU use as 100% and you'll see the seti taks using the vast majority.
You might want to progress and set this up to run automatically. Start it prevously as above. Then close the window. Easiest way is to make it a scheduled task (start menu > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools) Add a new task and browse to your seti.exe client. Tick "when my computer starts", If prompted for password, use windows account and password that would have rights to the PC, even if someone else is logged on, check the advance properties box, and on the settings tab, make sure the stop after 72 hours box is cleared. Save & close. reboot the PC. When you've restarted, check task manager and you'll see if the CPU is at 100% as before to confirm it's all going.
If you have a hyperthreaded or dual processor CPU, simply create a seti1 & seti 2 folder. Then you can set up each seti1 & seti2 .exe file as above, and then automate them both.
You can get sophisticated and add seti driver. I don't use it. Instead I go for the setiqueue software. There are links from that site for setup instructions, but simply, run the setup file. Now run the setiqueue.exe. In the settings > general enter your chosen email address, and the account name in use. You only need one setiqueue on a network, or it can be run on each PC that runs seti.
Now go to your seti.exe startup files, (if scheduled task edit the properties for them). the startup line will need to be changed to something like C:\seti\seti.exe -proxy 127.0.0.1:5517. The c:seti\seti.exe is the path to the classic exe file. The -proxy has an IP address, this is either the local address for your PC i.e 127.0.0.1 or an actual IP address on your network for the PC runing the setiqueue client. 5517 is the default port for the seti queue server.,
There is a lot more links and ways to setup in from the Greatest Sticky - TOSAH archive although some of the links in there might not be active anymore.
I want to join the effort but for some reason SETI can't connect through my uni's proxy.
Even when I set it to connect through my http tunnel it won't work :<
Although all is not lost I have a server at home which is on 24:7 and that is not firewalled (or at least I have control over the NAT firewall) so will connect ok

Cruncher null reporting in, s'ahs!
It was so cold this morning waiting at the bus stop, that when the bus finally arrived I took my laptop out and commenced crunching for the 30 minute journey to school. The bus was so cold the windows were all frozen up, but fortunately the laptop warmed me up nicely and at the same time I got some work done for The Push (tm)
Keep up the good work people

T'ank you s'ahTheTross said:Have just checked the Team Caffiene account again and there have been two WUs credited to it. Not sure if anyone else is using that account other than yourself, so I'm guessing that everything's fine
Ok, have assigned my second cruncher to The Push. Only good for 3-4 WUs a day, however, as it's only a non-HT CPU and not on 24/7, but they'll all help no doubt . Have also b0rged my sister's laptop for as long as possible, though that'll be going back to uni with her on Saturday/Sunday so won't have long on that at all unfortunately. I would leave it on there, but I'm assuming she'd have a problem with the battery running out after an hour or so...
No probs mate, glad you got it all working

I missed this thread completely 
I will switch my [email protected] to Classic tonight, will be fun to see how fast it crunches Classic units
Any changes to the commandline client 3.03, Seti Driver or Setispy?
Can I just run it again as I still have it installed?

Reckon they'd let us borrow it for a little while...?
Oh, just remembered something about setting up the client as a scheduled task. If you want to run the cli if no-one's logged in (i.e. at the welcome screen), you need to type the following in a command prompt:
schtasks /change /ru SYSTEM /tn <scheduled task name> [enter]
Also works for Seti Driver, as long as you set Seti Driver as the scheduled task.

lol, now thats dedication to the push (tm)!
This has revived my spirits a lot, I can feel the competitive spirit coming back and brings back a lot of memories from a few years ago.
I miss the caching, dumping, parps and stomps with Boinc
