Hi All
I have recently been forced over to boinc like a lot of other people.
With Classic I had it set up to only run as a screensaver. To save time
showing graphics - I had the screen set to go blank.
Then it finished a work unit it would then request a internet connection.
This has run fine like this for 5 years.
Could somebody please please please tell me how to set up boinc to do this.
The boinc software is very confusing and I have no idea how to do this and
do
not know what it is actually doing.
I am a software engineer and certainly no novice when it comes to software.
Reading this newsgroup suggests that a lot of people are having these
probems.
I am about to give up and uninstall it which seems a pity after 5 years.
I have always been prepared to donate my pc's time when not in use but
will not allocate resources during the normal operation.
Regards
