Team Stats :: Team Comparison
Folding@Home is a distributed computing project which studies protein folding, misfolding, aggregation, and related diseases.
The Folding@Home project allows anyone with a computer and an internet connection to take part in the search. By using the computer while the owner is away, the F@H client is able to study the proteins and folding related diseases.
As with the SETI Team, we also come together here and discuss and share different points of view, review particularly interesting WU's that someone may have come across, or answer questions that anyone has (and ask a few ourselves, too, when we're stumped on something).
To participate in the Overclockers Club Folding@Home Team, complete the following steps:
1. Download and install the OCC Folding@Home client.
Windows 98/2000/XP/NT
Linux/Intel
Mac OS X/PPC
2. For Windows users, all you need to do is run the setup file and enter in your username when it asks for it. For Mac and Linux users when you first run the either client, you will be asked for your user name. Enter in your username that you use on Overclockers Club. It is case sensitive, so make sure it is correct.
User names should also not contain the following characters:
# ^ ~ |
3. This only applies for Mac and Linux installations: After entering your user name into the client you will be asked for your team number. The OCC Team number is 12772. After entering this in, any work units will be returned for Team OCC.
4. Run F@H whenever you can! If you go out of town, leave your computer on and running F@H. If you go to sleep, leave your computer on and running F@H. Once you have completed some WU's (Work Units) you will gain access to our special F@H forum, only for our Folding Team members! You'll also get a cool looking DNA strand icon and it will appear next to your name in the forums. It usually takes up to 36 hours for it to appear, after you start folding.
Still have questions? Don't understand how it works? Ask questions here!
Alternate install methods and Live CDs
Folding CD Generator - This is a nice trick. Just put in your team and user information, download the 3 MB cd image, burn and fold away. No configuration is required after downloading the CD image. This disk is very good if you want a simple hands off folding farm.

Using your custom Folding@home image
We currently have several images you can choose from. Below are some examples of the images:
NOTE: You will have to edit this code! Change the name "ijagwalaafq" to the name you use in folding@home. You can check your name here. The names ARE case sensitive! If your name appears in all CAPS at the folding@home team list, you will need to type it in all CAPS in this image code.
