Go to your account: http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/home.php
There go to Seti specific settings: http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/prefs.php?subset=project
There uncheck "Use CPU" and the next time BOINC contacts the server it only downloads GPU work.
Aloha, Uli

Go to your account and click
"Preferences for this project SETI@home-settings"

there you can uncheck
"Use CPU"

if you only want this for your server and not the rest of your computers you click the
"preferences for work" link, set this as wanted and attach your server to use "Work" in the servers Computer information screen
