You don't mention if your hardware & OS is 32 or 64 bit. Below is a link to the official BOINC PROJECTS LIST https://boinc.berkeley.edu/projects.php Someone more familiar with your hardware and OS will have to chime in here as I'm guessing you might be able to run *some* projects using the alternate/anonymous platform with special compiled apps for those few projects.

Aw thats a shame. Thank you all for taking your time to answer my question. If there are other ways to contribute with my SunFire let me know ID: 113233 ·
