hi all,

im wondering why, on my machine (2.8 ghz celeron processor, 256 meg
266 ddr memory, 400 mhz system bus, windows xp home addition) does
seti take so long to finish a unit of work. the seti client that im
using is version 3.08

it takes an average 8/9 hours.

looking at some of the bench mark stuff i found in another posting.
it says it should take about three hours.

my machine is alway on and the only thing that runs most of the time
is seti and NAV w/auto protect.

is there a way to speed seti up.

Did you check you taskmanager? What processes are running? Did you check for
spyware?

don did all that. there is no spyware on my computer or any rogue tasks running in the system.
