Questions / Re: Can't connect to BOINC client

« on: November 17, 2022, 02:14:20 am »

One Linux Machine is invisible to Boinctasks, However I can use the Boinc manager to remotely get access to the  remote Boinc manager.

Is there an entry in the BOINC log on the machine you can't connect to?
Something is refusing the connection.
The only thing I can think of is a password problem.
You can connect to the BOINC client with BOINC manager on the same computer you use BoincTasks on.

Interesting.
The sequence shouldn't matter, obviously who starts BOINC matters.

The CPU % is not related to the CPU frequency or speed in any way.
It's the BOINC client counts the real time and the run time reported by Windows.
Dividing the two gives the %.
It seems that something is stealing CPU time.
Even if the cache should be disable, it still should be something close the 100%.

You should check what the load is for the individual threads and who is using them.
The resource monitor should help you with that.

I need to integrate the Intel API and that's difficult to test, one small mistake and everthing crashes.
I will add it to my to-do list and pick it up when I have time next year summer?

That low, maybe the CPU is doing something else with a higher priority.

Yep, notices are a likely suspect and alerts end up in notices.

You could try BoincTasks Settings -> Notices -> remove the check at Show Alert every.

Is it a CPU or GPU task; less CPU on a GPU task is a good thing.

Now I understand.
I've seen it happen in other apps for no apparent reason.
My guess a notice maybe.
In general, clicking on the button removes the highlight.

Do you have a screenshot, tells more than words.
But I guess you mean the Task button/selector.
There is nothing that BoincTasks does to change the color, so it must be something Windows does or the monitor.

As in one of the lines in the Tasks tab or something else.

GPUZ and HWINFO should be able to detect more than one GPU.

More the n16, shouldn't be impossible, but difficult to test.

Should be possible, but I don't have a card for testing.

Can you tell me what temporary directory it's trying to use and I'll check what's going on.  I've not had problems installing any other software.

Help -> Update See "Folder to store download"
Otherwise try installing with the right mouse key "Run as Administrator"

Error 5: Access is denied.

I checked and it works just fine.
In BoincTasks go to Help -> Update  press Check.
Make sure Include Beta versions is checked
Should show 1.88 as a new Beta
Press Update.
