You have been in the Gym too much today

, Hello Missy nice to welcome you to OC3D and also hopefully welcome you to our folding team soon.

Hi,

Thanks for the welcome

I've just had a look at Chudleys's guide and was following the instructions until it came to Step 6. I tried to auto detect the GPU's and it couldn't find any

Then on Step 7, I've never folded before, so don't have the details to fill this part in or am I just being a bit dumb

I'll be using my personal laptop to fold on, I was browsing the forums and was looking at Redline to fold for, such a great reason to fold

 

[chudley]

Hi, If you look in the redline section I will help you further, or if you wait till I get home I will sort a guide out for you and PM it

I could be that GPU is not supported so spec of the laptop would be nice ?

do you know the whole reason from Redline Folding aka Phill our BIG man

?

I think a lot of the other OC3D members don´t really know maybe its nice to add that why we Fold as well,

there is a thread will post the link laters....

Hey SnW,

No sorry, I don't know the whole reason, but would love to know more

Cool, the link would be awesome.

Ok, here's me being dumb, where do i find out the exact spec of my laptop? i know the make and model number off the top of my head, but not all the technical stuff

Missy

 

[chudley]

What is the make and model number, that can be googled to look for the spec or you could look in Start>All Programs>Accessories>System Tools>System Info - to get a quick summary.
