Title: TT version in Computers windows
Post by: Corsair on April 12, 2010, 08:16:42 AM
Hi Fred,

could be useful to check if some computer if TT is out dated in the computers windows, same as is the BOINC version, could be the TThottle version too.

on that way with a quick view you could see if something should be updated.

another thing could be to see the O.S. installed in those computers and the BOINC architecture installed to (x86, x64, etc.)

It isn't possible to check if BOINC is running the 32 or 64 bit version.

Hi Fed,

1st text line of a x86 client:

host with win xp pro x86 sp3 (Spaniard)     - Starting BOINC client version 6.10.43 for windows_intelx86

1st text line of a x64 client:

one host with win xp pro x64 sp2            - Starting BOINC client version 6.10.43 for windows_x86_64   
another host with win xp pro x64 sp2        - Starting BOINC client version 6.10.43 for windows_x86_64   
another host with win 7 home premium x64    - Starting BOINC client version 6.10.43 for windows_x86_64   
one host with win xp pro x64 sp2            - Starting BOINC client version 6.10.43 for windows_x86_64   


this could be a good beginning as just started the BOINC program the first line of text is the version
of the program:
program version and architecture (x86 or x64)

I had this discussing with David (BOINC project director) and we couldn't come up with a way, to check for 32 or 64 that always work right.
Reading the messages only works when there are less then 2000 lines. But lots of computers run 24/7 and with GPU's, you easily go beyond the 2000 limit, I do so in a day.
And after that point the line with the 32/64 info is gone.
