For what it's worth...I'm running a system nearly identical to yours, which
has just had the hard drive re-formatted.  The Seti Unit I'm running now is
at 62% and it has taken 132 hours so far.  My units always average close to
200 hours.  So, what am I doing wrong???

You guys are talking about 15+ hours, I'm talking 200+, what's up with that?
