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

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.

Thanks, ready to throw about 100 cores at it if I have to...
