I think I may have fixed the laptop enough to try and run boinc but I have a question about the titlee setting inside of the Einstein specific settings.

Just to be clear, even if I had a GPU capable of running tasks this would bypass those if a CPU version was available right ?

Sp of there was a GPU Task 1 and CPU Task 1 the CPU Task 1 is what would run with said setting ticked ?

Ty.

Edit: So I don't have to make a new post I want to ask this hear but how do I disable the roation of the seti graphics screensaver ?

What setting are you referring to?

This is wrong forum to ask about Einstein@Home settings.

But I'll try to answer.
Read:
"Run CPU versions of applications for which GPU versions are available"
as:
"Run also CPU versions of applications for which GPU versions are available"

Einstein@Home Applications:
http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/apps.php

There are 4 "Searches", every "Search" can be done/computed by numerous "Applications"

Einstein@Home server status page:
http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/server_status.html

The setting "Run CPU versions of applications for which GPU versions are available"
have effect for only those "Searches" for which are available both CPU & GPU applications.
I see only one of this kind at the moment: Binary Radio Pulsar Search (PMPS)(BRP3)

So if this setting is Checked: both your CPU & CUDA-GPU will work for (PMPS)(BRP3) (by downloading different programs/applications)

If this setting is UnChecked: Only your CUDA-GPU will work for (PMPS)(BRP3) (by downloading Only the CUDA version of the program/application)

Ty for that and to be quite honest, I never considered posting this at the Einstein forums. I've just been so used to using this site for BOINC / SETI.

Ty for those answers ;-)
