To make the app_config use notepad. Copy and past what bill wrote to notepad. Under file hit save as, on the bottom set it to all files. Save it as app_config.xml Put that file in the primegrid folder. That is at under programdata then BOINC then projects then primegid.net After you put the file there, in the BOINC mgr on top under actions(I think) click read app files. Or close and restart BOINC

HK-Steve Looks like I will change out to my last 64bit computer so I can use them at least.. No damage from the leak, looks like it was evaporating as it leaked, will post a photo tomorrow.. Cheers
See it even happens to the Best of us.
Yes it does, Now up and running with 11x GPU's.... will be off to bed here in 2hrs, the overnight stats will be interesting to wake up to.... Now to look at this xml to get 2 tasks per GPU up and running, got 2hrs to work it out...

Hmm, First xml did not work.. But another question before I try again.. Is anyone running CPU task?? I ask as I left all my CPU's running WCG, but can switch over if I can get more points here...

And remember to (Options - Read config files) in the Client and if you have download tasks suspend the client and restart your PC to make the changes to tasks in your queue

I think if we get on this 2 units per gpu, we can overtake to number one. We can check after a day to see if we need that cpu horsepower.

CPU would better serve over here https://secure.worldcommunitygrid.org/team/challenge/viewTeamChallenge.do?challengeId=8127 in our 12th Birthday Challenge over on WCG. Only a thought for them 100 Cores.

Luckily the wcg challenge ends with just enough time for 1 cpu unit.

You know we could make a run at this with a few more players. Robby has some hardware, hopefully he can get it going after work.

Morning Everyone, looks like all went well over night. Had one computer lockup, so lost 2x 980ti's for 9hrs... not sure why it happened. Will look into it this morning after some shopping. Keep up the great work everyone.
