i've just helped my friend upgrade his pc. he then gave me the ancient pc for my trouble.it is an intel pentium mmx 166MHz. What OS do you recommend for me to run on that system?:D

You need more than 64MB of RAM for folding? :rolleyes:

The cpu isn't really fast enough,You can do it but you it will take forever and ever,It is recommended that anything without SIMD (SSE, 3DNow+ or AltiVec) run deadlineless WUs. CPUs slower than 300 MHz are probably too slow to complete WUs unless the machine is running 24x7.
