since both of you are running windows, it should work, unless you did a service installation.

Maybe just stop the boinc manager, restart again.

no worry, the process is rather robust, nothing is lost.
Seems that the Screen saver sometimes needs a little kick...

And maybe... you just forget the screen saver if you run windows and have ATI Radeon graphics. Sucks but true.

Or you have a onboard graphic card... or you have any graphic card...

Yup. I bought a 9600 to see what's up. No graphics. Now to see if I can figure out what's wrong....

Well, is it idle? What do the BOINC Client messages say, what do you see in the work tab?

I have to confirm. Neither

I have to confirm.

Neither graphics nor screensaver is working on ATI RADEON ..
I have ATI RADEON 9600XT under WinXP and nothing on Boinc 4.25 :(

The same application at the same machine but with integrated Intel Extreme II instead of ATI works fine :(

Hopefully guys will find the problem :(
If you know some solution please give me info.
