Now would be the time to say, err i didn't do it.
FaD is deliberately annoying me now, it's breaking my Stats and calling me, ChrisIMRIE & ChrisIMRIE;1
So now not all my crunching is going onto the one username, thus why it's all slowing down for my main username.
How should i fix this? I'm guessing ladypcer will be first on this topic
I can find NO ChrisIMRIE;1 ... anywhere on FaD ... where are you seeing this? in your FaD folder?
You only have to delete 1 file from the FAD folder and it will be called something like name
.tlg;1. All you want to keep is the name.tlg file.
But you have to close down the entire program by choosing exit when you right click the tray icon. Once you have deleted the tlg;1 from your FAD folder simply restart the sever and remove the job associated with the name.tlg;1. That leaves only one job remaining. Now you can start THINK and everything should be back to normal.
Be sure to go to Setup > Options tab and set "1" as the
Number of copies of Think. That will prevent think.exe from running more than one copy on your
single processsor. Try it, I bet you churn out more

I've heard turning HT off cripples your computer speed"
Yeah, right, you "heard", try reading ...
"I disabled hyperthreading on my two 2.4 LV Xeons and lo and behold - the system is SOO much more responsive. I can be rendering and actually fire up photoshop and work away on an image at the same time". .... "I have had HT turned off since this afternoon. Havnt done any heavy duty work yet but the system does actually feel a bit snappier" ... "In the end, Intel admits that in some cases the performance can fall with the Hyper-Threading enabled, for example, in case of empty wait cycles. We just can assume that this is the very reason (the detailed examination of the SolidEdge and SolidWorks code is not the aim of this article). You all know how conservative the developers of CAD applications are; they prefer realiability and do not hurry to rewrite codes with innovations in programming." ...
I can go on but I don't want you to think I'm rubbing your nose in it ... Dont be fooled by the clueless HT marketing gimmick
(it has its pros and cons), go for a 'real' dual based system.
To quote myself ... numbers numbers numbers, it's a game.
