Finally got everything working again. Two machines with miss matched cards. GTX260 + 9800GTX+ in two different computers. The XFX260 card is due back tomorrow. It will replace one of the 9800's and boost production by 2K per day.
No word on the BFG card yet.

One issue that I am unable to isolate is where Windows will lose the extended desktop setting. Not sure what is causing that.

I have this on 1 Vista computer, but only if I reboot-it.

A never ending story this is. Both RMA cards arrived this evening.

Swapped them for their 9800 counterpart.
XFX card is folding happily.
BFG card in a matched system throws Blue Screens.

Tomorrow I may try some older drivers. 191.07 are not working well.

Did not even realise my folders went down. Will have to make some time one day to check up on them. Probably a power cut a few years ago and the ups might've run out of juice.

By the way, what does BTW stand for?

It is better to be tried by 12, than carried by 6.

We should see an avalanche of points today, since Stanford seemed to have experienced some problem since yesterday morning.

Seems, like the only problem happening right now is that my single core clients can't be sent to Stanford's servers. However, at least, we can still download and process them.

Hi Justintime. Haven't seen you in ages.

My single core client has had trouble sending units back to Stanford for the last 2 days, but it did send one it finished 1 hour ago.

Anybody knows when we are going to be credited the missing points from Nov. 10th and 11th? Not that it is a must but it really s*****d my ppd average?

I have been looking for them to show up. I just posted a query over at the F@H site.
It would take a week to stabilize your stats ppd as it is based on the previous 7 days of information.

I may shut down my gaming machine tomorrow and see if I can figure out the issue with blue screens and two cards.

Well I may have found the issue with the blue screens on my gaming machine. Bad memory. I was running 2x1gb ram. I have gone through three pairs of Crucial Balistix with errors showing up running memtest86 vs 3.3 from an UBCD.

Verifying the ram I scavenged from a Notfreds folding machine.
