32 or 64bit, m0da?
i'm using 64-bit. updated to 6.4.5 now. scores changed, by a lot... weirdddd!
*Question: I've got an 8400M GS w/128mb vram...
here: http://boinc.berkeley.edu/cuda.php it says:
Does this mean I can't use it for BOINC? In my messages atm, it says no CUDA devices were found. I've got the Windows 7 nVidia drivers atm, but I'm d'ling the latest vista x64 drivers just in case I can use it with that.Quote:
If your GPU is listed here and has at least 256MB of RAM, it's compatible.
any suggestions?
*Edit: nice. Installed latest vista drivers (179) and now it found the gpu!
and after a restart, performance went up a bit-
*Edit again: OH NO. gfx clocks are 169/100 instead of 400/600 when computing! time to troubleshoot this now...Quote:

Does this look low for a E6750 at 3.2Ghz?
Whatever the latest BOINC is, it was downloaded a few hours ago. XP x86... I spent hours getting 64bit set up, and could not get the damn tv tuner to work, or the second tv tuner, or any of my lan cards... So i just went to x86.
Low clocks, I know... But its a Torrent box, so i dont want to be pushing the silly P35.
Thankee :up:

6.6.10 gives me higher scores.
What version of Windows are you running, ChaosMinionX?
I personally like tangy lime the best.
Can someone link me to the indexed page of various flavors of the wcg boinc installer? Im looking to figure if its worth it to install the 64bit version instead of the one that is available on the wcg main download page.:cool:
If you're running a 64bit operating system, you want the 64bit version of BOINC. If not, it won't run.

eh.... who on XS runs default services? I turn almost everything off anyways :up:
Same rig as above.... this time with new beta...

Thanks :up:
OK im confusing the hell out of myself whats the difference between the Wcg installer and the one on bionic page? 2 different animals ? I thought they were both linked? I looked at this http://boincstats.com/search/result.php and it seems I have a dormant 18000 points? Yes I have home premium 64 bit. Ok the wcg installer is 6.2.28 and the boinc is 6.4.5 64bit those dormant points I have are throwing me off :shrug: what is the difference between the 2?
Any info from that link is tied to your login. Anybody else gets:

I have no idea what you mean by "dormant points".
WCG test the BOINC clients themselves and recommend only those releases that pass to THEIR satisfavtion. 6.4.5 DOES NOT. Also, the one from WCG is 32bit, NOT 64bit, and puts a WCG logo in your system tray instead of the generic BOINC one.
If you want to be sure, click the "display all versions" (or whatever it's called) link on the BOINC page and pick the 64bit version of 6.2.28
