We want it to happen, and I did a minor fix-up of the OP a couple of weeks ago. I requested a mod to clean it up a bit, but that hasn't happened yet

I want to get this going, but I've been quite busy. As feared from the start, we're in lack of donors. Probably scared-off by the anti-fah posts here.
I have a spare C2D system and a P4 system sitting around here. The C2D is working and I'd prefer to keep it, but the P4 is missing a few pieces (RAM and HDD) and I'm not entirely sure if all of it's parts are working. I'll try to get some parts in the next week and test it, but if too much of it is screwed, I might consider sending any working bits off to someone here for FAH.

Put me down as a "possible donor".

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

If i can't decide what to do with my old PC components in the next week or so then you are welcome to them, parts as follows:

AMD Athlon 64 3500+
MSi Amethyst-M Mobo (s939) (also, has some possible issues; IDE controller and PCi voltage)
4 x 512mb ram DDR (3200 i think?)
XFX 7600GTxxx PCi-e

No case, no hdd, no optical drive and no PSU. I'll have a shuffle around for other parts i may well have, i always have intentions to make use of them but i never do. I like the idea of folding but i don't wish to use my current rig to do so and we also try to be energy efficient in my house so i can't run another base unit.

If people are still not trusting, is there some site you can find places that do it locally?
Might make people do it more if they can see who they are giving it to and if they an official building etc. etc.

I think I have an old ATI 128mb GPU lying around somewhere, but it's an AGP slot, useful for anything?

Only reason it's spare is that my motherboard has only one IDE connector, and I needed an HDD and an optical drive, which were both IDE, so I couldn't link the both of the HDDS without an optical.

I would do it, on this computer and my server, except I have performance concerns that I messaged freezer with. I can send them to you as well if you want max.

There is fah for linux as well correct?
you don't need to worry about performance. It shouldn't affect you day-to-day operation and if you're something that needs loads of performance you can always shut it down for that time

There is a client for linux, in many regards better than the windows one
Why when i run Folding@GPU does it cause my computer to be unusable ? Even at 20% everything lags including the start menu etc...
