Issue with new pc

GIXXERGUY6 · Mar 19, 2010

I built a pc for a guy and overclocked it and have it stress tested and am going to run folding on it for a little bit, but my hfm is reporting only 2200 points and a credit of 483

It's showing an a3 p6025. why is it not showing like 13k ppd?

I have the right key, right username and right team

Any clues?

FIXED IT

I forgot the mobo and cpu was offline during the timechange.

sorry for being a nincompoop guys

Is it an i7?

If so, is it using all 8 cores?

yes i7 -smp 8 -verbosity 9

hfm status is blue and says runningAsync?

still only showing 2300 points.

Did you install VM Tools and sync the time to the host computer time? I made this same mistake on my 1 week old rig.

I haven't had to do that in the past. Why now?

Still the same thing

P6012 blue status and only pulling 2200 points. This is sad

THe system clock is wrong on the new machine, which is why HFM reports asynchronous clocks. With the clock wrong, the download time is wrong and thus the ppd is wrong. Look at the TPF, is it around 3 minutes? If so it's running right. If not, post the log.

If you answered yes to -advmethods in config, you don't need -advmethods in the start string. You must have selected -advmethods in config to have gotten a p6012. I think PG should fix the client so that it shows -advmethods in the Arguments......

.....if you selected it in the config as I did in the rig the log snippet came from.

Somewhere around Harlam and I have posted about how the ppd calc is made.

Chas- Yes it says 3:02, and yes I did say yes to advmethods and put in -smp 8 -verbosity 9. I'm confused it 's never done this to me(yet)

Bios sys clock was off due to being unplugged over time change. Lol. Its

ChasR · Mar 21, 2010

Bios clock is run by a battery, it doesn't lose time when unplugged, if working correctly.

GIXXERGUY6 · Mar 21, 2010

I know chas, it was offline and we just had a time change, changed time and it is ok now
