1. Passthrough of PCIe USB expansion cards. I was following SpaceInavderOne's video on how to passthrough a USB device and once I reset my PC the USB controller didn't show up in the VM editor. What I noticed after re-checking if i followed the steps correctly is that even though my 2 PCI-e expansion cards come from different vendors they appear to be using the exact same controller. The controllers are both in their own IOMMU groups but they have the same ID. What can I do ? IOMMU group 19: [1106:3483] @.0 USB controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VL805 USB 3.0 Host Controller (rev 01) IOMMU group 21: [1106:3483] @.0 USB controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VL805 USB 3.0 Host Controller (rev 01) 2. At the same time I was messing around with my VM (it's set up in a way that I can dual boot into VM or directly into Windows) - When I did this setup i checked that the normal boot still works, but now, after about a year when I tried to boot straight into Windows it didn't work - windows logo shows up and that circle of dots keeps spinning - sometimes it freezes. After a few hours I said F*** it and tried booting into the VM again. It started normally but I was limited to some 4:3 resolution. After some more messing about, trying to figure stuff out, I got to 800x600 resolution. Next day I didn't even get a video output when I chose to passthrough my GPU (it was a quadro 2000) - Not only there is no video output, the windows doesn't boot. But if I remove the GPU and use VNC the VM works normally... Now I tried the 2000 in my other VM which has a GTX 1070 and it didn't work, so I thought maybe it's the GPU... I got a quadro 4000 ... still doesn't work in the first VM. Then I tried booting into my other VM with the 4000 ... Works but not perfectly - Change back to 1070. I was again limited to 800x600... This time I started thinking that this resolution problem must be a driver problem so I went to device manager and uninstalled the video driver for the 1070. Restarted and everything works perfectly. So this got me thinking that the first VM also might have a driver problem that is keeping me from booting into windows with a GPU passthrough, but the thing is that the driver doesn't show up in the device manager when I use VNC. So how can I find the right driver to delete? By going to c:/windows/system32/drivers ? by going to regedit? Do you think it might be something else ? P.S. I was reading a thread on UnRaids forum about passingthrough where they said to try running the VM with Hyper-V set to OFF, but when I set it on OFF , updated the setup and went back to edit the VM the Hyper-V is set back to ON. Log:

Correct, its hard to get to the right sign on mac...

is 700$/e a good deal for 2x1080ti's in your country ?

GPU now recognised, but output resolution on my VM is now 800x600 . Still not folding https://prnt.sc/pd9glc

I was playing around with my virtual machines yesterday and I was switching GPUs from one VM to another and now FAH client wont recognise my 1070 even though it's recognised just fine by the VM and Windows. When I noticed this morning that the GPU isn't folding I tried assigning a specific index, but it didn't help. After that I uninstalled the whole client with data and reinstalled. Didn't help either. Pictures: https://prnt.sc/pd8zjw https://prnt.sc/pd902k https://prnt.sc/pd90fs Any idea what I should do? It's bad enough my secondary VM won't even start with a GPU passthrough now I've f* up my primary VM too...

Nice, I saw up to 47K PPD with CPU only but I shut it down after the WU completed. The Macbook is not mine and like you said no chance I'd do it for a longer time. I just wanted to see what kind of numbers I can get. It's still one hell of a computer though. I'm a video editor and it really helps me do my job wherever I sit down. Just not comparable with a 4000eur desktop PC

Damn, now it looks like I've missed two events. I just found the google doc for the folding week in march 2018 The difference in number of participants then vs the upcoming event is massive... over 100x. Thank you all for the information. I'll be back at the end of the event to get my badges

Yeah with a GPU My quick google search told me that you mostly can't fold with GPUs on macs... Though I have no clue what kind of a difference the Radeon Pro 560X would make.

Thanks, but what gives you the higher level badges? There are 3 levels right?

If anybody wondered about the PPD of a top spec Macbook Pro (early 2018) https://prnt.sc/pb03pc Not even worth the risk of damaging it by overheating

What are the requirements for folding event badges? And side question: Are the floatplane badges gone ?

Thanks and I saw the pinned post. The process is for checking points is now automated

Quick questions. Who do I contact for the badges? and if I remember correctly for the first folding event we had to post our numbers (maybe there was a google doc?) on the starting day or something like that. Is that automatic this year or still manual?
