First, dump the GUI version of the client.  Using the CLI version will
improve both machine times dramatically.  Your results indicate that the HP
either has a hidious video subsystem that isn't taking any of the video
processing off the CPU or that something else is running in background.
Make sure you have the latest drivers for your video on that machine and use
the Task Manager's (Ctrl-Shift-Esc) processes tab to see what's consuming
your CPU cycles.

I own two pc's that I've installed Seti on. One is a Gateway running
win98se with a 1ghz Pentium III and 512mb or ram, and the other is an
HPrunning Win XP Home with an Athlon 3000 2.167ghz and 1gb ram. It
takes the Gateway about 10 hours to complete a work unit, while the
much faster HP takes 24 to 30 hours. I've got both set to work at all
times. Why is this, and how can I improve the HP's processing of
units?
TIA
