I use Team OS Xs Folding@Home Windows Service Installer for running several computers for TeamMacNN.
I think I messed up one installation, as it allways runs at 50% CPU usage. How do I uninstall it cleanly and then reinstall it? Is there a way of uninstall manually?

At my current rate it will take more than a year to get past the guy in front of me in F@H
With some help I think I can add 10 GHz or so of folding power, perhaps even more

Are you running it on a P4 then most likely HT is enabled and if you have enough ram run two instances of F@H. If not run with a -config flag and reset your prefs.

It will be 3+ years before i pass someone (if onemacguy stays with BOINC that long).

I tried installing 2 clients on one P4 with HT, that did not work out well I still got 50% CPU usage.
I then deinstalled that and installed just 1 client and I am still at 50%.

There are a couple of P4 arriving soon so I would like to get the hang on this, to get some serious folding power

Make sure you are using the -local flag on at least one of the 2 clients.
