i've done what this text says:
The Skype ID you use for help calls will be publicly visible, so you'll want to create a 'Help account' separate from your existing Skype account. When you're 'on call', run Skype under your Help account (you can switch accounts using the File/Sign Out menu).

IMPORTANT: your Skype 'Help account' must make its status visible on the web. To do this: run Skype and log in to your Help account.

* Windows: Select to Tools/Options menu. Click on Privacy. Check the box labeled 'Allow my status to be shown on the web'.
* Mac: go to Skype/Preferences. Select the 'privacy' tab. Check the box labeled 'Allow my status to be shown on the web'.

What if you want to accept calls from either your regular Skype ID or your Help ID? It's possible - you need to run two Skypes at the same time, one under each ID. On Windows, the two copies of Skype need to run as different users; here's how to do it:

* Go to Control Panel / User Accounts. Click 'Create a new account'. Name it 'BOINC Help' or whatever you want. Make it of type 'Computer administrator'. Click the icon for the new account, click 'Create a password', and give it a password. Close the dialog.
* Right-click on a Skype icon. Select 'Run as...'. Select 'The following user', choose 'BOINC Help', and enter the password.
* A new copy of Skype will appear. Log in to your Help account, or create a new Skype account if needed.

You may also want to create a new email account for help emails (your help email address will not be made public, but users will be able to post to it through a web interface).

BUT i STILL appear offline!!!


BY THE WAY i am using skype 4.0

I'VE DONE IT!!! NO CUDA DEVICE FOUND message anymore!!!. my brother came up with the solution. i uninstalled boinc manager, disabled the boinc service, and then entered regedit and deleted ALL boinc entries that could be deleted. after that i rebooted and installed boinc 6.6.2. it's wired that my project remained and all my settings!! i don't have to do a thing.

i deselected all the options in the instaler and it still is instaled as a service. i also had problems with the service.. before this recent problem my problem was that boinc refused to do any work becouse the service wouln't start at all. i fixed the problem by seting a new pasword to the user boinc_manager in the manage menu of my computer. and then set the pasword in the service menu of the boinc service and it worked.. boinc started doing work pot no GPU work, just CPU work
