Returning former DCer has questions

[MadMerc]

Been out of the DC thing for a while, in large part cos I've been mostly running on a laptop. I'm about to put a new rig to go and I'm looking for suggestions on what to run.

Its going to be a mobile athlon xp rig, so ideally something that runs well on one of those

PS... To anyone that remembers me - HI!

FaD plays nicely with Athlon rigs Welcome back! :thumbsup:

Welcome back, MadMerc!

Your computer will run any project just great and would be welcomed

I have and do run many different projects, but my favorite is still Folding@Home.

You can find links to a FAQ page and setup guide here:

Is that XPM in a desktop rig?

<---- has got a XPM 2500 @2.52GHz

mech, yes it's me i'm amazed my account was still here, not used it in 4 years or so

btw, that tnt2 is still running great, thanks man

as to to the xpm, its going to be in a htpc (well, more like a gaming/hifi pc in an htpc case) but i'm still speccing it out.

only response to a question on matx boards of mobile xp ocing got me a reponse that i should look at socket 764 semprons instead

You might drop a PM to DAPUNISHER, he is endlessly helpful and has done some microATX OC'ing with AthlonXP's

MadMerc you old so and so. Hi there. Feds still exist in a rather disorganised fashion. Engineer pops in and our occasionally. In the main we have been doing SETI classic as a payback for the effort the SETI team put in for us in our DPC battle.

It's nearly over though now and we have completed >140k wu.

We have a few other things on the go. DPAD springs to mind. (It's got cool graphics if you want to run it in .scr mode)

err ,where is that question?

Forgot to say S@H runs great on XPMs
I get 2hrs/WU on SETI classic v3.03 CLI

Kinda decided to get a cheap socket a board for now and stick with my 1800+ a bit longer, than reevalute when i can afford the rest of the htpc kit
