3GHz P4 800FSB maybe running a little slow... help!

with my newfound hyperthreading, i mostly run seti@home and other processor intensive applications. . . but it seems slow at times. From what I read around a 3GHz should be able to do a seti packet in around 90 minutes, but mine takes 2.

you using the full Screensaver type Seti@Home or the Faster more Compact CommandLine Version? the CLV does complete a packet in about 90Mins on my 3.0 system. try ftp://alien.ssl.berkeley.edu/pub/setiatho...nnt-cmdline.exe

even though it says i386-winnt... it runs awesome on my P4 3.0 win WinXP. Hope that helps

Windows XP comes from NT though so that would be it :P
