2.1 dual core with vista... SMP not working :(

[blackjackel]

I need help, preferrably in real-time on instant messenger.

blkjackel & blkjackel@hotmail.com are my screenames for yahoo and msn respectively. Help will be appreciated, I will continue to try and figure this out on my own as well.

I'm in the top 400 and I wanna see if I can make it in the top 300 :)

So what's the trouble?

[blackjackel]

well at the very bottom of the console it says:

Compiled 0 out of 500000 steps (0 percent)

and does NOTHING after this, even though the cpu is at 100% usage.

How long have you been waiting? If its a 2608 or 09 and depending on your CPU it may take 30 min till the frame is finished.

[blackjackel]

I've waited hours.

I tried downloading a monitoring program, Electron microscope 3, but it freezes... It just doesn't get along with vista or something.

The CPU is a Intel Cor2 6400 @ 2.13 ghz. It's a dell Precision 390

Can you post a screenshot?

[blackjackel]

What do you mean which rig? It's the one I'm talking about, heres the screencap.

Because of the lag your second line didn't show up for me at first. Or else I missed it.

I don't know what a 2610 is. I don't see it listed. Not that, thats the problem. The 2608 and 09's are very dependent on larger Cache they run slowly on a 2mb cache cpu. This may be the case here. One of the experts in Win SMP and/or Vista will be a along shortly.

Thats the 5.91 beta client? Right?

Thats the same one I'm folding on my SMP client right now, its going at about 30 minutes per frame on a 1.8 GHz Intel Centrino Duo laptop, so it shouldn't take more than that on yours I wouldn't think. Have you tried deleting the work folder and getting a new WU?
