i have EM3 on the 266MHz in my sig and EM3 cant get the time per frame right. it'll guess a time but it is always to short. so it'll count down the time to zero then tell me there was a time per frame error.
is the folding client messed up or the EM3 program or is the comp too slow for EM3 to handle?
 
There's nothing wrong with either one. Is/Are the computer(s) you monitoring have a screensaver, or are you doing something CPU intensive? It will slow down the framerate, and EMIII will say TPF error. Just let it run, and it will give you a calculation, the next time a frame completes.
 
the other comp in my sig has EM3 and it runs fine, i play GTA: VC sometimes and i never got a TPF error, it's always right on time.
