Nice!

What is the current Windows SMP client? I only see expired ones. Confused


Jason,
The current SMP client is 6.24, but to get there, you have to install the 6.23 client then down load the drop in binary for 6.24 and "drop it in" the Folding@Home folder to replace the older version of the client. All other files remain the same.

I quit messing with the Deino Client and have gone back to the MPICH client for simplicity, but the drop in binary is downloaded by clicking on the Microsoft Windows logo under the single line that says "Drop-in binary for current Windows SMP console client (6.24). Expires: July 4, 2010" Not very obvious if you ask me, but the eggheads at Stanford are all about science, not making this system easy for us. I spent some time perusing the folding@home forum recently while getting the -bigadv system up to speed and you'll be happy to know the atmosphere there is just as cold and clinical as ever. Wink
