Default saving points?

Stability isn't what I thought it was and my PC crashed again. SMP had gotten through 80% of a WU, but starts off again at 0%. Is there any way to force it to send the work I've already done, and salvage something from this?

Use Qfix if it is stuck in the queue. If not, there is very little you can do to salvage the wu.

Yeah, IBT worked the first time through; not sure what is going on now.

Separately, got my VF1000 today and was all ready to install. Had to go back to Newegg and order a separate heatsink - sigh - so no hardware upgrades (including RAM fans) for a few days. Once I get all that crap added in I'm gonna restart the whole OC process. So my FAH points will limp along for a few days based largely on GPU alone....Hope to be back at full strength (and then some) by next week.

yeah, I've noticed that since the OC your PPD went down about a 1000p. instead of gaining about the same. my first tip was that the OC isn't entirely stable. would be nice to know if its the RAM, CPU, or temps?

Yeah, and it's driving me nuts too. Everything SEEMED nice and stable but obviously it isn't. Hopefully (fingers crossed) add on the new hardware and try again over the weekend.

if its the RAM then try loosening the timings, because RAM speed has little effect on your PPD anyway...
