The suggested minimum requirements for the CPDN model include an 800 MHz processor, although some are running it on slower PCs. Slow PCs have in the past tended to produce unstable models quite quickly. It may be the PC just can't handle this project. |

Psst... JM7 is an Alpha tester of the BOINC client. He's just testing things for Carl. :) (I suspect... aren't you, John? ;)) -------------------- Jordâ„¢ <img src="http://boinc.mundayweb.com/cpdn/stats.php?userID=2&trans=off"> |

I found the timing of the crash interesting, and yes, I know about the declared minimums. However, the dual 200 Mhz seems to be doing OK (also a test to see what happens). No I was not really expecting to get any work for either of these computers (this is covered in another thread), but since I did, I figured that I would follow through for a while to see what happened. I was also using the dual 200 as a resource sharing test for the BOINC core. I seem to be invited to the party on a larger numbe of Alpha tests recently. BOINC Alpha, Predictor Alpha (when it was closed), CPDN BOINC Alpha... I try to do my best to test with the equipment that I have. All windows, but a fair spread in CPU speed, HD capacity, and RAM. jm7 |
