My screensaver doesn't work. I think I read somewhere about BOINC's problem with ATI Radeon video cards. The new version was supposed to fix this but only if the project updated their file. I was wondering if I read this right and if so does anyone know when einstein@home is going to fix this issue?

I don't get an error message.

Check out the Einstein@Home Beta Test under More Information on the E@H home page.

I have a Radeon PCI-E card

I have a Radeon PCI-E card running with a 64-bit driver on Win XP x64 Edition. Screensaver worked with a 32-bit driver before I updated the driver. Now the screen just goes blank. Will the beta file fix this problem?

You might want to check this thread for possible answers: Message boards : Cafe Einstein : NEW: WINDOWS TEST APPLICATION FOR EINSTEIN@HOME. Or, you could ask your question there, too.
