are you asking how to hide your computers from public view? That is found your seti@home preference page. click No on the "show your computers". In a rich man's house there is no place to spit but his face. Diogenes Of Sinope |

No. I did not make it clear. I had a same computer. With two diffrent operating systems. Vista and 7. I upgraded to 7. I accidentally merged them toghether. The Vista machine had 135 credits and my new 7 machine is getting more credits! How do I get the old Vista Operating system credits out? |

It is mostly to get rid of duplicates. Sometimes a minor change is made to a system that causes a second entry to be made at the server. To help users keep things straight, merging computers was implemented. This was really important for a while at the Large Hadron Collider project as every connection would generate a new entry in the computers table. BOINC WIKI |
