We have currently set up 2 machines to fold from parts and money that have been donated by the community. We have a third one coming along. We are always looking to expand this for the good of the community and for the cause.

If you would like to donate any parts, software, or money to purchase items for this project please contact me by PM with the subject line "Community Folding Project Donation". This will help distinguish donations, questions, and other PM's I receive.

Note: Please realize that all contributions are non-refundable due to the nature of the project.

Any hardware or software that is needed to start up a new project will be kept in a list in this thread.

Needed hardware:

• Cpu Cooler for AM2 socket and bracket (Stock or otherwise)
• RAM
• GPU
• Surge Protector
• Extension Cable

Well, after taking it down to the basement, and trying to open the atomic bomb that was most likely wrapped inside due to all of what looked like a tape box. It took me no less then 5 minutes to get the box open, and close to another hour or two of trying to get all the hardware out of the wrappings that it was in.

So after a bit of tweaking, testing hardware, and trying to figure out passwords (cough gibsonnova71 cough), I finally got machine 1 of 2 back up and running.

What it is doing right now:
Running the CPU SMP program
Running 4 GPU clients on 4 8800GS Alpha Dogs.

Machine 2 will be up and running once these things happen:

• I get back from my trip
• I order a couple Cat5e cables so I can attach them to my network
• Clear off the shelf that I originally cleared off which is now piled with packing equipment.
