Ok I've moved to Boinc 7.0.58 x64, so far, so good. If you are not yet aware. BOINC v7 uses different cache settings. So instead of like 0 and 2, for a 2 day cache, you would want use 2 & 0.01.

Starting to warm up here in the northern hemisphere and I am once again only crunching on the GPU's until November. Luckily even through the buildup i'm still able to crunch on both CPu & GPUs. Although the CPU runs in the mid 80s°c & the GPU in the mid 70s° with the fans almost flat out, they keep cool enough to not produce errors. Grant Darwin NT ID: 1356424 ·

I'm just having a problem with Boinctasks 1.46, I have to start BoincManager after BoincTasks to get Boinc to run, as starting Boinc from BT by itself doesn't seem to work like under 6.10.58, otherwise I'm not experiencing any problems.

As v7 works in a high to low queue mode now unlike v6. Maybe that is what you want. Just wanted to make sure you were aware of the change.

As i mentioned in the other thread, if you want to maintain the same amount of work that you had with v6.x, you have to swap the cache values around. Grant Darwin NT ID: 1356434 ·

No, I'm talking about when one starts Boinc under BT, BT just has a lost connection status, I then have to start Boinc with BM, then close BM while leaving Boinc running. Fred should be able to handle this. My Computer Builds and Other Projects ID: 1356435 ·
