I re-enabled seti on my systems after a rebuild and noticed the application is shown as... SETI@home v8 v8.22 (opencl_ati5_SoG_cat132) windows_intelx86 ... it is the Intelx86 part that raised my attention. The rebuilt machines are 64 bit and have 64 bit Windows running, Belarc shows this... Windows 8.1 (x64) (build 9600) ... so do I need to do something myself to get a 64 bit version?

No. There is no 64-bit version of the GPU applications here: the tasks are so small, and use so little memory, that the extra addressing bits actually slow things down. |

Okay, understood. Thanks. Wave upon wave of demented avengers march cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream. |
