I recently successfully started GPU computing for Einstein@Home with a GeForce 8400 GS. But that means I've had to stop computing for Malariacontrol.net so Einstein@Home would run 100% of the time.

I would like to continue supporting Malariacontrol.net as much as possible. Is there a way to assign my GPU to Einstein@Home, and all my CPUs to Malariacontrol.net 100% of the time? I have 4 computers running BOINC, but only 1 has a GPU that meets Einstein's requirements. I am using GridRepublic to manage my computers, but I would be happy to switch to another account manager or use no account manager at all if that makes it easier to do the GPU / CPU split.

I *could* disconnect my GPU-equipped computer from GridRepublic so I could exclusively run Einstein@home on it, and leave the other computers running Malariacontrol. But if it's possible, I'd like to use that computer's CPU for Malariacontrol and its GPU for Einstein.

Thanks, I'll give it a shot!
