      Assuming you are referring to the web site preference specification: Did you adjust the preference that affects the Location (aka Venue) that applies to your specific host (default, home, school, work).

        With your hosts hidden we can't tell if that was for the first contact only (before the new preferences were communicated to the host) or what.

            This is my host:

            http://einsteinathome.org/host/9144326

            I'm using BOINC 7.0.28

            I try to use only NVIDIA, because on my ATI (with previous PC/SO AMD/Vista) the 5770 return a BSOD.
