Hello @ all,

I am running BOINC 7.2.28 (x86) on a fairly old XP-desktop. Te be able to work propperly when am using the PC I have set BOINC to suspend all work (CPU and GPU) while the PC is in use.
But even though the BOINC-Manager tells me E@H is suspended for the PC is in use the time is counting and looking at the task manager is telling me E@H is still active with a small share of workload.

Any suggestions or hints to change this behavior, except for shutting down and restarting BOINC?

Thx in advance and keep on crunching ;)

Which applications are still showing time being incremented? Does task Manager show a core's activity per app, or are they effectively using minimal CPU usage (held in RAM awaiting the resume)

With your computers hidden we can't even guess which host this is on, let alone look at the stderr.txt entries from it's results.
