If it was not hitting the final deadline it could be a HW (overclocking etc.) or SW (driver fail, WU fail, etc.) issue. Sometimes the WU is even broken, especially if you are folding with the -advmethods flag (beta WUs; can increase, decrease or not change the points you gain - and can break the client ^^)

And to the 2xx.xxx points: I would like to replace some of my older machines with a high performance folding machine but I have no money to do so (would need around 2000€) :(

Someone told me that my school have bought rendering hardware for ~$30 000. Too bad that it probably doesn't have the same backdoor that our machines had in the beginning, a local Administrator account without any passwrod that had Administrator previlegies.

SETI@Home killed my graphics card, and now I can't use my computer!

Is there any way to see the points received for each individual WU?

You will need to install a monitoring tool like HFM.NET (which I would recommend) or fahmon. Or you look for the project on Google...

320 WUs completed, team rank 10890 of 193383 - amazing!

But we could still need some more high performance folders! If you have a Core i7 please contact me. And my offer to run a dedicated folding machine is still current so if you are interested post here too ;)

I'll be buying a new box in a month or two and it will definitely be a high-end gaming machine. My old box will probably turn into a dedicated folder and my new box I can have fold every few nights or so.

This may or may not have something to do with the extra dozen of Quad-core (no i7, I'm afraid) boxes I've found ;)

For some odd reason the folder on my laptop is already all day trying to get a new work package... with no success.

Is it connected to the Internet?

Or try shutting down and restarting the client.

The lappie always connects automatically. I'll see what it does tomorrow. :)
