1) Message boards : Problems : BOINC Client can't pull settings from Scienceunited (Message 840) Posted 7 Oct 2021 by ENShearin Post: Solution works, at least for the HTTP problem we've all been reporting. See David Anderson's post from 10/5 (https://scienceunited.org/forum_thread.php?id=348). It involves updating a certificate file in the BOINC program directory with an unexpired one.
2) Message boards : Problems : BOINC Client can't pull settings from Scienceunited (Message 839) Posted 7 Oct 2021 by ENShearin Post: Look in the News folder for the entry mentioning Windows communication problem with BOINC-that might be the fix.
3) Message boards : Problems : Science United Not Updating (Message 829) Posted 4 Oct 2021 by ENShearin Post: Same problem-resetting things locally (router, computers) doesn't seem to change the HTTP error noted above. Windows vintage doesn't seem to matter as latest Windows 10 Pro and an old XP show the same error.
4) Message boards : Questions : Use Einstein on Intel GPU but not Nvidia? (Message 680) Posted 16 Feb 2021 by ENShearin Post: It's probably the age of my board that is the original problem-it is a GT 720, and the GPUGRID task would also bomb on it every time. Since I'm not going to upgrade it on a 7-year old desktop, however, I'm looking for workarounds that make the best of the available resources.
5) Message boards : Questions : Use Einstein on Intel GPU but not Nvidia? (Message 678) Posted 15 Feb 2021 by ENShearin Post: Is there any way on the same account to keep Einstein off my computer with a Nvidia GPU but allow it onto one with an Intel GPU? When I say no pulsar work for the account, which lately has been generating continual faults on my Nvidia GPU but runs OK on the other computer with the plain Intel GPU, then work units are stopped for both machines, even though the gravitational ones seem to work OK on both. The recent history is that I noticed about 40 some work units ago that every pulsar work unit on the Nvidia computer was faulting at the end--work unit runs to completion but then the display driver stalls, has to be restarted by Windows 10, the BOINC log indicates that the result is absent in the work unit, and Science United records another failed work unit, but the scheduler keeps sending new units. I'd rather do something more useful than generate failed work units or not use a GPU. Obviously, I can set up another account for the Nvidia computer, but is there a simpler way on one account to do this?
