Hi to all Folders here. I just joined up to do my bit for science, currently folding my first WU... I'm on a Dell Inspiron 1420 with a Core 2 Duo T9300 processor with 4GB RAM. How should I configure it to maximise performance without having it overheat, or kill my electricity bill? (Previous GPU overheat issue burned my chip, don't want to pay Dell another RM300+)

If you decide to join our group called Folding@Malaysia, then fill up the "Team number:" with 2999 during configuration. Its preferable to get a passkey from http://fah-web.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/getpasskey.py when you choose to do SMP work units as such and having completed 10 SMPs will entitled the next one to secure additional bonus points.

But bro, I need the SMP client to do SMP work units right? I currently have the normal installer (CPU) with graphics in the systray version.

So should I try running the smp client now? I think I *could* handle installation on Windoze, but worried it may conflict or something with the CPU client. Do I need to uninstall the CPU client first?
