I'm having a similar problem. I recently downloaded 5.10.30 on my home computer (with Win XP) and a work computer (Vista).

On the home computer, I have no problem seeing the graphics.

On the work computer (Vista), I just see the logo and I can tell it's *running* as the percentages increase (I can tell I'm getting new work in the "messages" section, too). However, I am not seeing the graphics.

Is this a Vista only problem?


I'm not using Vista

What kind of video card do you have?
Is it truly a video card, or an on-the-motherboard chip?
How much memory does it have?

Most of that info can be procured through Start->Run->type dxdiag->click OK, if you're not sure.

I think the Seti screen saver needs 32MB of memory at minimum on the video card. Now if this is on your Core2Duo, it looks like you're using on-board video and only appointed 8MB of memory to the chip.


I do have a Video Card, 256MB ATI Radeon 2400 XT, is there a setting or some such to allocate resources properly?

Did you install BOINC as a system service or single user? Are you switching user accounts (Windows Fast User Switching)?


Single user, and as far as I know I'm not using windows fast user switching.

When my screensaver comes up, it's just the BOINC logo with the satus of the processing underneath. How can I get the cool SETI graphic to appear? There are no error messages that I can see.


Is your screen saver password protected? If so, you have to disable the password protection to see the SETI@Home screen saver.


I tried that and it didn't work.
