I just installed BOINC and now, when the screen saver kicks in I get the following error displayed on my screen. Secure Windows Desktop detected This platform not supported The only type of messages I'm getting are the following: SETI@home - 2004-08-23 19:21:20 - Requesting 85689 seconds of work SETI@home - 2004-08-23 19:21:20 - Sending request to scheduler: http://setiboinc.ssl.berkeley.edu/sah_cgi/cgi SETI@home - 2004-08-23 19:21:23 - Scheduler RPC to http://setiboinc.ssl.berkeley.edu/sah_cgi/cgi succeeded SETI@home - 2004-08-23 19:21:23 - Message from server: No work available SETI@home - 2004-08-23 19:21:23 - No work from project SETI@home - 2004-08-23 19:21:23 - Deferring communication with project for 2 hours, 12 minutes, and 49 seconds Any help would be appreciated. |

1. Screensaver. To resolve the problem you need to disable the Windows Welcome screen in the screensaver settings. If you have a problem, you can use the "Keyword search" available at the top of the "Questions and problems" webpage. Searching for "Secure Windows Desktop" would give you this result. 2. No work from project. There is indeed no WU's that can be downloaded. You will have to need some patient in order to get fresh WU's. Hope this helped. Greetings from Belgium. Help Desk: use "Most recent answer first" sorting |

Are there any plans to support a secure windows desktop? I've got domain admin access and cannot leave my system unlocked! |
