ok i came back from school early....toaday turn over day...so u could skip classes so i came early...
ok ill expain gromacs
There are 2 cores (FAHCore_78.exe and FAHCore_65.exe) you can check which core you are running by pushing CTRL+ALT+DELETE...
CORE_78 is gromacs the new fast one...
CORE_65 is the slow one
most of you probably have core_65 so u want it to be core_78
Method:
Either make a shorcut or use the startup shortcut (which is already there) from "winFAH.exe" which is probably in your "folding@home directory" (in program files)
now go to your shortcut and RIGHT CLICK>PROPERTIES then change this:
add -advmethods -forceasm at the end of the target after the (")
just copy and paste this.... "C:\Program Files\Folding@Home\winFAH.exe" -advmethods -forceasm (if ur using the default directory..)
PIC:
it should look something like tht
then click ok and when the WU ur working on right now is done the "winfah.exe" will AUTOMATICALLY download the new core_78 and you will be folding gromacs in ur next project
u can check ur LOG file to see if it is using the gromacs are not at the beginng of a project..
but sometimes you dont always get gromacs....so then u will get the use the old core...
remember the old core projects are usually out of 400..
but you will see a big difference in the folding speed with the gromacs for sure
i hope this explains it well....
if u still have questions feel free to ask...
