BF2 and folding proteins

[Varsol]

Is anyone able to run Folding@home and BF2 at the same time? I'd like to try to do both at the same time, but it'll always minimize BF2.

You should be running your folding as a service anyway.

That will really kill your games performance. I wouldn't recommend it.

Processes have a setting called "Priority." You can set this to RealTime, High, AboveNormal, Normal, BelowNormal, and Low. Set it to Low and you'll have no problem.

Thank you, drive through.

It won't hurt your performance in the slightest. When something else needs processing power, F@H gives up the power it is using.

And yeah, if you run it as a process, you shouldn't have any problems, the graphical client is not the preferred method for folding.
