Topic 190804

I'm delighted to have a new (used)computer, but am having trouble installing Boinc on it, perhaps because I'm not being recognized on the new computer. I checked and both old computers are still listed. How do I go about changing this and getting Boinc working again?

Also, what is recommended for "Use No More Than ___GB?
I used to get messages from MS that I was using too much on this project.

Hmm. I changed my password and tried again and this time it worked. I now have Boinc working. I still would like to know about how much space would be best to indicate for use.

sloracer, The "use no more

sloracer,

The "use no more than__GB" setting will depend upon how many projects and which projects you run, how much free space actially exists on that new machine, and what else you may wish to use it for. A figure of 10GB should cover youwell, if it is available. Einstein won't use anywhere near that much, but it likes to be told that it has plenty of headroom.
