Dagaroth, yes i meant that i want the science applications to stop not BOINC. You are correct.

ok i (edit) 'you' figured it out. Stupid little setting that ageless mentioned. I had, under 'activity' set to 'run always' and not 'run based on preferences'.

Thanks for all the help.

I am running the latest Manager (5.10.30) and i would like to set my BOINC to only run after my computer has been idle for 5 minutes. I dont want it to run while i am working. I go to 'advanced' then 'preferences' and unchecked 'While computer is in use' on the 'processor usage' tab and set the 'Only after computer has been idle for' to 5.00.

This should work correct? It is not working for me. It is running all the time even when my computer is in use.

Please advise me what i am missing.

Thanks,

It is time for the website profiles to indicate, if not already:

A. The change takes effect upon first client to server contact with the project where the change was made.
B. The Local Preferences, if created, override the website profiles and should be cleared if return to website profile control is preferred.


You are saying that you think that my project preferences are overriding my local preferences? I am using BAM! and my BAM! preferences are also set to not do work while computer is in use.
