Hello. Joined in prep for your week in May... and will continue after that. I'm a total noob at this but wanted to help.... that said, I have 2 questions I'm wondering if someone could help me with.

Does BOINC have to start up with windows, and is it bad to close it out sometimes? (vista 64). I have a 24/7 machine I plan do dedicate to this, but would also like to use my gaming system when I'm not busy on it and startup / shutdown of BOINC is a concern.

Also, to use the 2nd computer, do I just need to download the client to that and log in? Anything else to do?

I apologize if these have been answered before. I'm new to this and didn't know where else to ask.

Thank you.
