That looks correct!!

So you were probably just fine.

Your worktodo.ini would have contain lines that looked like this...

Pfactor=k,2,n,1,49.5,1.7 (where k and n are values of the test obviously)

Your other alternative is to create the worktodo in the same fashion as you did except change the lines slightly...

Pminus1=k,2,n,B1,B2

Where you specify particular B1 and B2 values, since your short on memory you could run a slightly larger B1 and a smaller B2 if you wish.
----------------------

here is a step by step of what I did to create a custom worktodo.ini

Start off using Mikes program but use ridiculous numbers...

makewtd 10500000 10501000 46 3

lines are created

Pfactor=k,2,n,1,46,3

Now open the worktodo in your favorite text editor.

Replace Pfactor= with Pminus1=

Replace ,1,46,3 with ,1,b1,b2

Values of B1=40000 to 60000 work pretty well, I believe Hades_Au is using 60000+

Then use a b2 somewhere around 8 to 14 times B1, b2=b1x10 use to be pretty standard but stage2 is now much faster than stage1 "If you have the memory".

On my machine a B2=B1x14 pretty much spends equal time in stage 1 and 2. (barton with 2G of memory).

I'd suggest you try values of B1=50000 B2=400000 if you feel your machine memory limited.

so your final line looks something like

Pminus1=k,2,n,50000,400000

--------------------------------------------------

The above is also how one transfers stage1 and stage 2 stest between machines.

If you were to use the following line

Pminus1=k,2,n,50000,50000

Only stage 1 would be done, then you transfer the files to another machine and run...

Pminus1=k,2,n,50000,400000

Prime95 will say something like stage1 complete 1sec starting stage2.

Inaddition if you wanted to re-run some files to higher B2 values...

First run
Pminus1=k,2,n,50000,400000

Then on the same machine run

Pminus1=k,2,n,50000,800000-400000 (or is it ,400000-800000

--------------------------------------

Hope this helps, best thing to do is try a few tests and see what happens. If you make a mistake in the worktodo.ini prime95 generally doesn't start.

You can try a smaller test first...

Pminus1=4847,2,2800791,1,20000,20000 <--- should complete in about 15 minutes for stage1

then

Pminus1=4847,2,2800791,1,20000,200000 <--- should restart the test and run stage2, using stage 1 from before.

Pminus1=4847,2,2800791,1,20000,200000-400000 <--- should run stage2 again out to a higher level.
