I use super duper. Have had better luck with this than CCC. Both are real good programs.

Check out this thread. It seems they are dealing with some errors on HPF2 here. If you you are running only this project on a multi-core machine it seems to have this problem. Try mixing up the jobs between projects or only allocate a couple of cores to HPF2. http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/...739_lastpage,yes#lastpost Hope this helps Cheers Glad they are looking into the problem. Weird thing is that three of my crunchers are nearly identical hardware and all Windows 2008, yet only one of those hits this problem with any frequency. Running the same profile on all boxes too - profile did have four projects selected, I checked a few more and now have six projects so maybe that will help.

Could not believe the beautiful weather today. I think it got to about 45F or about 7C and sunny. Just the right weather to finish putting up the Christmas lights. My fingers are sore from changing out the little burned out bulbs from the icicle lights. There must have been 50 of them burned out. If one is burned out, the string does not light. I have a bulb tester, so I can find out which are burned out. I am only buying LEDS from now on. Cheaper on the energy bill and they last alot longer. Cheers I got my metal halide lamps... I really though that those were some tiny compact that I could place on window frame or something. Oh no, those are size of barn door, I mean that I could use almost those as bathtube or something... Well light is excelent, very close to sunlight (5700K) and there is lot of it. Really lot, I would say really really lot... Most beautiful part of those is that those are made probably most cheapest chines part, a.k.a. there is mechanical ballast inside of those, so it will lead that (I really do not know these on English) their power factor is real crappy, power angle is 0,4 (after I remove capacitors) . I do not mind because my power meter counts only for real power (P/W) and not reactive power (Q/Va) that seems to be those favorite delicacy. That reactive power will change to heat with some algorism and I can live with that I might gain some (lot) free heat.... EU will forbid selling of mechanical ballast on couple of years, so w000t   [Edit 1 times, last edit by ultimaThule at Dec 2, 2009 8:17:38 PM] |

Still some lamp stuff...
----------------------------------------I think those floodlight were some of my best purchases on this decay. I modified those little bit by adding fans sold for computers. There is this huge copper/iron ballast inside of those and they get _really_ hot, probably more than 200'F. So I add this tiny fans to blow directly to them, and move heat between aluminium reflector and outer black aluminum hull. I drove those 6V (designed for 12V) so there is not any noise even caused by them, but so lot (free) heat. I have already become addicted that beautiful sunlight that those provide. Inside is like bright day on Swiss alps, all colors are full and every lines and forms appear as razor sharp. Outside there is two landscape, Luna and yellow snow... Sky is once again steel gray, not really any different if would be night. So landscape on countryside is like watching black and white movie, except poorly focused movie, because mist makes everything look like unfocused.. City areas has start to look to me like yellow snow. There is lot of light on there but it is fluoresce light that is between 2800 - 4000K and now when I have use to to this 6000K. 3kK It really look what it is, yellow, so very yellow... I also put some fresh herb to flower pot and place them under those metal halides, they really seems to like those. So now I have some fresh parsley and tarragon growing inside and those smell so very wonderfully. I have actually manage terraform this area suitable for human living http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elIVoXUJ4V4 [Edit 1 times, last edit by ultimaThule at Dec 5, 2009 1:42:10 PM] |
