¡Urgent! ¿Win 98 non-graphical client?

monkeypants · 8 Apr 2006 at 20:04

I'm about to download the client, but the only one that explicitly says Windows 98/ME is graphical. Can I use a Windows NT/2000/XP client that's non-graphical? Or am I stuck wasting clocks with pictures?

504 is working, just not connecting to the work server. :confused:

IE and that are still working. Is this just my problem? How can I fix it?

Look through your fahlog and check to see the server it's trying to contact then try to ping it. Also, I'm pretty sure the service installation won't work so you'll have to go old-school SETI on it and use something like srvany.exe.

.... How?

This is what it says:
+ Attempting to get work packet
- Connecting to assignment server
- Successful: assigned to (171.64.122.112)
+ News from Folding@Home: Welcome to Folding@Home
Loaded queue successfully.
- Couldn't send HTTP request to server
(Got status 503)
+ Could not connecto to Work Server
- Error: Attempt #9 to get work failed, and no other work to do.
Waiting before retry.

That's one of what it says, looking back it would have been less effort to log in to OcUK and copy it. :rolleyes:

might be worth trying the v4 setup guide here

of course it'll mean taking off v5.04 but with the v4 set as a service it'll work just as well - just won't be able to specify large WUs (hardly any around at the moment anyway)

Thanks Rich, will do that in the morning. Don't expect much from me until I get some slot 1 P3s, I've only got a 450Mhz one at the moment.

It's for dual P3s.

Ace-ness. 504 is working, must have been something up with the work server or my connection.

When I get two CPUs, I just create two shortcuts right? And everything is in the sticky?
