Of course you are, im not folding 24/7, just when my computer is on, which is afternoons during the week, and about 18 hours a day during the weekends.

Also, im going a big WU right now, should be finished by the end of the day. [/b][/quote]
i get like 3-4 WUs done in 24hrz but some times i give my cpu a little rest for an hour and start again&#33; ;)
(i have it on 24hrz)

i actually have one question when you right click on the icon in the taskbar and then go to STATUS>QUEUE INFO what is tht whats the que all about? i dont get tht part..

No idea, your using the graphical version. I use the command line only version, and I have it set in the background to run as a service. Thus if I need to stop it, all I have to do is use the Net commands in the command prompt, and I just have a link to the FAH log, and the info log to check my progress.

Quite handy.

that&#39;s actaully bad for your CPU, if you let it cool down regularly after being at a constant heat then it damages the chip more than keeping it going at full tilt.

The reason is because the CPU expands and contracts as it heats up and cools respectively - if this happens too much the CPU is in danger of cracking. There is no reason not to run your CPU at full usage 100% of the time, it might actually extend its life.

Ive joined and now working under the name TRshady :)

Proud to be able to help ... though I really dont see how this works ...

Have a 1.5ghz comp running ..... 24/7 :D
