Hey Jim, if you were to get some mb's in the mail what would you do with them? They would include cpus but nothing else. Of course the books would be included. Hey Mikey If Jim does not want them, you could send the boards this way, always could use more machines on the farm,lol. I will pay shipping of course. ![]() Beach Bums Current Stats: ![]() Come Join us at Hawaiian Beach Bums |

Hi Mikey, I just talked to a friend last night (his name's Mikey too!) and he says he'll help me get the memory etc. He says that's no problem, and he will help with cases, etc. also. BTW, I can pay for shipping on these, but you will need to let me know how much so I can send you a money order and it will have to be after the first of the month. (On disability). My email is jrosstheman at bellsouth dot net Jim Some people plan their life out and look back at the wealth they've had. Others live life day by day and look back at the wealth of experiences and enjoyment they've had. |

I am going to be in California in about a week or so and was going to mail them to you...BUT...Jim said yes AND his friend is a Mikey, and we Mikey's stick together.

I am upgrading it to an AMD 64 3000. my email is: mikey159 at gmail dot com, this is my spam catching one but I do read it several times daily. ![]() |

Hey Jim, if you were to get some mb's in the mail what would you do with them? They would include cpus but nothing else. Of course the books would be included. If you are RICH RICH RICH, I have a several hundred pound server I can let you have. It is a quad xenon 550mhz server that the USGovernment used to own. I got it free and it crunches fine. It is here: http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/show_host_detail.php?hostid=2268008 But it IS a basement warmer and an energy HOG! Shipping would be OUTRAGEOUS! I am considering putting it on ebay for local pickup ONLY. ![]() |

Just curious, what kind of machine is it? Fear will keep the local systems in line. Fear of this battle station. - Grand Moff Tarkin |

Any more of this "you said" ... "no, you said" 'communication' and this whole thing will never go away. I say, that sometimes I get a good laugh here in a way. However, some people said that I said things in a way I did not say. But I agree that let's start today. There must be a way that we can come together some day, live happily, post nicely, and be okay. That's what I say. The empire must pay! LOL just kidding, okay? I must now swift away. Off to work, down the bay. At night, without a sun ray Sad as it may that everynight is my work day. But I'll be okay. Have a good night and a good day! |

Sure Mikey Never turn down boards. I either recycle them into the farm, or recycle them into a free or very low cost system for some family that does not own a computer at all. ![]() Beach Bums Current Stats: ![]() Come Join us at Hawaiian Beach Bums |

It is here: http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/show_host_detail.php?hostid=2268008 eBay is a BAD idea: visit http://freecycle.org, find the Freecycle group(s) local to you, join it/them, and then OFFER: it to the group. I'll guarantee you it'll be claimed by someone within an hour, tops. There won't be any humongous shipping cost, because the person getting it from you will be getting it from you directly and taking it home in their own transportation. Mark |

Good luck for Crunc3r! I am running wu in cache but future time on seti wu will be drastically reduced as I have now attached to several other projects instead of just Seti |

Hey Mikey No, I Have been looking and it is a no name, at least on the outside, big honking thing with 4 casters. It has quad xeon 550mhz processors and 12 18gig scsi hard drives. It even has a Sony tape drive in it. The case ahs a serial number on it though: Z01013075. It was assembled in the US. I want to say it was made by Aspen Systems but am not sure. ![]() |

What was the link to download Cruncher again? And when we run it, is there any graphical image of some kind of progress bar for each work units worked on? Are we going to be in trouble for running any old version type of Cruncher? Or is there a problem running an older version Cruncher?? The reason I ask is because I've concluded that was the standard BOINC app crashing one of my computers. Even after reinstallation. I don't know why, but I'm throwing a wet towel at this one man at his locker as I yell "What's that smell?" ... |

What was the link to download Cruncher again? Crunch3r has removed the program from his site. www.marisan.nl/seti has also removed it. BUT they do have a note up as of June 11th "PEOPLE ARE WORKING ON NEW OPTIMIZED APPLICATIONS (June 11th, 2006)" ![]() |

And when we run it, is there any graphical image of some kind of progress bar for each work units worked on? One of the first things all optimizers have done is to compile without the graphics. That eliminates a fair amount of code. Are we going to be in trouble for running any old version type of Cruncher? Or is there a problem running an older version Cruncher?? If a particular version is required, the project will set that as a minimum. For now there may be no minimum set, just any setiathome_enhanced application. The reason I ask is because I've concluded that was the standard BOINC app crashing one of my computers. Even after reinstallation. I don't know why, but I'm throwing a wet towel at this one man at his locker as I yell "What's that smell?"I presume you meant standard science app, if you think BOINC is the problem you might try the Trux version...
