I think I read also about the first WU being totally out of touch. it'll base later WU on your initial one to give a better ETC. I think it runs a little benchmark to try and guestimate the speed of your cpu but it's not very good. My first one said 47 days and only took 5.

I'm only 50% on my first WU, Pentium 3 . I might get a new desktop with the Windows Vista in the next few weeks or months. Gotta check with the CFO (aka wife, Mrs. or mate)

See how our teams doing here.

Thanks

I just finished the first WU today 20,000/20,000. Is the Work Unit automatically sent from the home computer? The Team Statistics doesn't show my user name. Do I need to do something under the configure settings within the Folding@home menu?

Where does the WU progress show up? I signed up 3 or 4 weeks
ago and downloaded the app but see no evidence of activity.
Thanks.

The task bar at the bottom of your screen, on the right lower corner, is a red icon that looks like a gear with 5 spokes, place the cursor over it and it will show something like: F@H working (311/5000). If you don't see the red icon, you can expand the task bar by clicking the (<) symbol.

You can right click on the red icon and choose Display: it shows cool protein structure and the different data on the left column.

Guys I've also noticed there's a gpu client availalble for ATI cards.

If you have an AMD/ATI x1600, x1800 or x1900 ATI try out this version for some super folding.
