BOINC is asking over and over and over every 1 minut for CPU tasks, however most crunchers know that GPUGRID only has GPU WU's. Why is BOINC making this silly request over and over? So I will never get new work ofr GPU. I set Einstein to accept new work (otherwise the pc is doing noting) and got immediately 7 new GPU tasks. | |

Is CPU unchecked in your GPUGrid settings on this website? ____________ XtremeSystems.org - #1 Team in GPUGrid | |

No it is not, because I thought it is necessary for the project. I will uncheck it. Thank you werdwerdus. ____________ Greetings from TJ | |

So I will never get new work ofr GPU. I set Einstein to accept new work (otherwise the pc is doing noting) and got immediately 7 new GPU tasks. I have now at the GPUGRID preference set not to use the CPU, but BOINC is still asking CPU tasks for the GPUGRID project (wich it will never get). I now have to set Einstein@home to no more work, wait for the queue to be almost empty and then do a manual request for new work? Can it be done differently without making a config file? ____________ Greetings from TJ | |

BOINC is still asking CPU tasks for the GPUGRID project You can't prevent this. It's a Boinc feature. ____________ FAQ's HOW TO: - Opt out of Beta Tests - Ask for Help | |

BOINC is still asking CPU tasks for the GPUGRID project Thank you. But what is then the use of the option "use cpu" in GPUGRID? ____________ Greetings from TJ | |

It has no use. The GPUGrid site is adapted from a Boinc template. To start stripping parts like that out could interfere with function and future server-side updates. Think of it like your appendix, it has no known use, but you wouldn't want to go through an operation to remove it without good cause. | |
