Re: Anyone used SETIHide and had problems?? Oh yeah, got another question. If I want to run the CLI @ startup, which one should I put in the startup folder? the SETISpy, CLI, SETI Driver, or all of them or whichever 2??
Right now, I only have the SETISpy in the startup folder because that also starts up the CLI... -- CPU idling a lot?? Put it to good use! Join SETI@Home! |

It depends upon what you end up using. If you are not using a caching program, put SetiSpy in the Startup & set SetiSpy to start the CLI. If yo are using SetiDriver, then put it in the Startup & it will start the CLI.
FYI -- SetiDriver is a very good program & most people don't have many problems with it. However, on some computers it simply won't work right, and there's no explanation for it. I have 1 computer that it would never work on. That wasn't a big deal for me, since I have a home network & wanted to use SetiQue anyway (which, by the way, is another very good caching program). -- Don't waste those unused cycles!

 | Ok, so for example, if I want to use SETI Driver AND SETISpy with the CLI, which one would I put in the startup?? The SETI Driver? And will it startup the SETISpy and the CLI together as well?? Or do I have to put both SETI Driver and SETISpy in the startup?? -- CPU idling a lot?? Put it to good use! Join SETI@Home! |

You did the step by step setup by my pictures? The instructions I posted are for using SETI Spy to Start SETI Driver that starts the CLI. In that order.
Hope this helps,

 | Hey! I think that it actually worked! :) I set it up as you did in your picture and now I think it's working fine! Thanx a LOT!! So now I just leave it and once it's finished a WU it'll automatically send it in and bring back a new WU? And if the Berkeley site is down I can keep on crunching away? After it's back up, does SETI Driver send it back itself?? Again, Thanx very much!  -- CPU idling a lot?? Put it to good use! Join SETI@Home! |

How many WU's did you cache? I used 9 as an example, but you may need more or less depending on how fast your system crunches. Usually try to keep 7 to 9 day's worth on your system and you will be fine. 
Yes, you will cache and crunch while Berkeley is down (hopefully not often . Also, SETI will restart automatically when you reboot as long as you have a ShortCut to SETI Spy (just SETI Spy, nothing else) in the StartUp folder. I'm glad to have been of help to a fellow Teammate!
Keep on Crunching!!!

 | Yes, as soon as I saw the 9 in the cached field, I figured that your computer must be very fast and can probably crunch 2-3 WUs a day. So I changed that to 5 (I was thinking about 3) because I only crunch on average about WU a day
