41) Message boards : Number crunching : soundcard and SETI (Message 70842) Posted 17 Jan 2005 by phees Post: when SETI runs on my machine, I get pops and even distortion on my music (winamp, cooledit, whatever). I have a soundblaster live card and just reinstalled my machine (winXP) but the problem cant be solved. when running predictor- or climateprediction-units i don't get that problem, its only seti, and that since the first BOINC-seti!!! I read in a forum of someone having the same problems (not here). does anyone have an idea how to fix it? it's really anoying and i don't want to quit seti... thanx

42) Questions and Answers : Wish list : BOINC: Option to supress notification on tray icon (Message 70837) Posted 17 Jan 2005 by phees Post: Yep, I would like to have a list of checkboxes for different kind of events. (Maybe someone wants to know when a computation has restarted...) You should be able to uncheck everything down to real error messages. Would be really great (and not so hard to implement, I guess)

I solved it the dirty way: You just might search for the bad paths in your \boinc\*.xml files and delete the sections (after shuting down your boinc client!). you must delete the part of your local saved preferences in 'account_setiathome.berkeley.edu.xml' and the download paths which I think were stored in 'client_state.xml' (not sure!) After restarting BOINC the job was done. If this doesn't work you can still reinstall BOINC as well ;-) dr.phees ------------------------------ [b]phees solutions[b]
