Congratulations to the CentOS folding@home team for breaking through the rank 400 barrier. The next target is the rank 250 :)
More information about the team can be found at http://www.sharons.org.uk/cf.html, and we welcome new members and their machines. We always need more members and more machines too :)
Sharon.
As promised, I added my new Athalon X2 4800+ a week ago yesterday and I'm chugging away. One question though. I may have misunderstood the setup but I it doesn't seem as though I am using both cores to their full extent. Does the program see the dual cores differently than the dual processors?
Thanks Chris "Merlins_xPC"

If you start a thread actually having your subject in the header, rather than high-jacking another thread that a lot of people probably will not read (because of the subject line), you might have better results *and* it will be more in keeping with commonly accepted "netiquette"

It will only use a single core. To use both cores, you'll need to run another instance of the program in a separate directory.
I will be dropping out pretty soon. The servers that I've been "burning in" with the Folding@home application are going to be deployed soon. I ended up going from zero to a score of over 20,000 in about a month. (Drat, and I was hoping to catch up to Jim Perrin.) :-)
Cheers,

hehehe, man and I even made it easy on you by cutting back to just one CPU.....

you need to start a thread per core, and if you really do have the cpu cycles to spare, try the -advmethods options.
