1) Message boards : Questions and problems : Problem with BOINC 6.2.18
Message 20525 Posted 27 Sep 2008 by Tony |
Hi Richard Not aware of having Astropulse so I assume its the normal one. The system appears ok at the moment with the process running in background while I work. I've turned off the screen saver, reset preferences to default, then set max cpu to 70% and rebooted. The log shows its been doing analysis and upload/download ok for around 24 hours so I think I'll leave the screensaver off and not worry. Thanks. [/quote] What sort of SETI task is running on your desktop? SETI has two at the moment - MB (short), and Astropulse (very long). There has been a reported bug in Astropulse "whereby the Astropulse screensaver would sometimes freeze": a new version designed to fix this is in the final stages of Beta testing.[/quote] |

Hi I've had boinc in various versions over the past couple of years on my notebook working fine. I just installed the latest version 6.2.19 on both my notebook and my desktop system. Both running Windows XP current SP & patches. The notebook is working as normal. Screensaver when I am idle and goes away when I move the mouse or hit a key. My desktop is not so lucky and I am seeing the screensaver come up and not go away. The system hangs or goes into a loopy loop and I wait 10 minutes with it locked and then reset the system. have tried different preference settings including comparing all with my notebook but they seem ok. Video card is a Radeon 9200 SE. Boinc detects the following: 25/09/2008 6:09:50 PM||Processor: 1 GenuineIntel Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.80GHz [x86 Family 15 Model 2 Stepping 9] 25/09/2008 6:09:50 PM||Processor features: fpu tsc sse sse2 mmx 25/09/2008 6:09:50 PM||OS: Microsoft Windows XP: Professional x86 Editon, Service Pack 2, (05.01.2600.00) 25/09/2008 6:09:50 PM||Memory: 2.00 GB physical, 3.35 GB virtual 25/09/2008 6:09:50 PM||Disk: 111.80 GB total, 31.80 GB free Connecting only Seti@home project.
