I was using SETI@Home and have around 430k credits so I thought I would use Einstein@Home and Milkyway@Home in addition to SETI@Home. But now I cannot get SETI@Home to go back online, and neither Einstein or MilkyWay. And it won't communicate with the server, and it shows "0" work credits completed, and "0" credits per day in BOINC manager. Even after I select "upgrade". Any help would be greatly appreciated.

For starters downgrade your driver version back to a pre 340.xx driver (337.88 will do nicely) as later drivers only give legacy support for pre-Fermi GPU's. Then restart BOINC and give us the first 20-30 message log lines. Cheers. |

Notably Einstein does not honor the resource share (50/50% or whatever you selected) very well and likes to over commit the computer time wise - so other projects won't kick in. Also when adding new projects they want to make up for past ex. 50/50% share for the past months. One way to check if it a share problem is to simply suspend those projects and see if SETI kicks back in. If it does, set those project to a low share like 1 with seti at 100. |

Thanks, I'll give that a try. George |

I used to think SETI didn't play well with others, or other didn't play well with SETI. But after checking many different people in BAM! there so many people running the three of mine, and many more (I presume with higher powered PCs). I'll check into it and get back to you. George |
