I'm stuck on this PC until my new one gets built, but anyway... I tried to load Folding@Home on here... text console works fine, but seeing how I never used it before... I would like to see the graphical display. So I tried it.. went to open it up, then bam.. reboot. Intrigued me, so I tried it again... reboot. If I do anything with the "full version" of Folding@Home, besides exit it, it will reboot my PC :mad:

Anyway, i'm sure that will be cleared up with the PC i'm currently building.. THIS is what i'm stuck with now:

Pentium II 400MHz
128MB PC100
11.2GB Quantum 5200rpm
Voodoo3 2000 AGP 16MB SGRAM (think it's SGRAM anyway)

I'll be glad to be back on something faster, wish I wouldn't have gotten rid of my TBird 900 soo soon :rolleyes:

as far as i know its an open gl problem with graphical client. since you have a voodoo3 card that pretty much explains it. try fold monitor with the text client. I thew a link to it on the news page at
