What are you folding on and what WU's have you been getting ?
We can see if the points are about right for those combinations. The big points come from running the SMP clients but you need at least a dual core or preferrably quad core to be able to complete them in time (they have 3 or 4 day deadlines).

Andrew - not sure which forum you normally hang out on but I noticed I had not seen you in the new folders lists. After hunting I see you folded a while back (a 1 year folding milestone) and have started folding again - welcome back, it is good to have you on board again.

Welcome to Core_M (CoreM) 04-10-2008
Noticed you have turned in one WU under each name and both have fetched you 0 points. Which name are you going to fold under ?
I did the same when I started, I started an AzureProductions on one machine when I am folding under Azure-Productions.
If you are using the SMP core your machine needs to be able to complete the WU in the time allocated to the job (usually 4 days). If it is not completed and returned in time you get 0 points for it.
Let us know if you are having any problems and we will try and help.
Welcome and thank you for joining our folding team

I have been a long time folder (and a forum lurker for some time)... had 300,000 points under my first team with mostly Pentium3 and AthlonXP machines... then about 600,000 points with my last team with 2 AthlonXPs and 2 Core2s... and now jumping in here with DH...
