How do I disable GPU processing as I am getting a lot of computational errors when it uses the intel GPU on the Binary Radio Pulse.
I have turned off GPU processing preferences I have told it not to send any Binary Radio Pulse packets but it is still sending me intel GPU work and Binary Radio Pulse packets which is also disabled.
I have taken to aborting these not the best option but no choice when I have already disabled these options and it still sends them. I even removed and reinstalled Einstein but it still sends me work which wont process.

Disregard just removed project as it just isn't following the preferences you set too annoying.

Just go into your Einstein project preferences and set 'Use INTEL GPU' to 'No', make sure you host is set to the same venue as the preferences you're changing,
you'll have abort all your existing Intel GPU BRP work to get rid of them. (This project has old Boinc server software where the scheduler will resend existing work even with No New Tasks set)

Removing the project and adding it again caused the server to give your host the exact same hostID back. Then the server found that there was a mismatch between the work your BOINC had in cache and that what the server thought you should have, so it resent the lost work. So in the end, you didn't get more work, you just got all the same work again.
