Hy,
I´ve a problem since I´ve installed BOINC 6.4.7

I am running BOINC on a Intel Core 2 Duo T9300 (2x 2.50 Ghz) with 2 different Applications AND GPUGrid at the same time. So I had 3 applications running on a Dualcore.

After installation of BOINC Ver. 6.4.7 Im only running two applications (2 usual, or 1 usual + 1 CUDA application).

Maybe anybody can help me with this problem.

Carmo

ps. Im from germany so please don´t mind my bad english

CUDA doesn't block on core, it uses it to supply the GPU with work. In the 6.4 range of BOINC this is still the case, in the next version you will be able to use all cores and all GPUs. (Do not immediately upgrade to the latest development version as that one does NOT do it).

After System reboot and "stop work" and "restart work" at all WUs I finally got 3 applications running again.

I don´t know why the problem appears, but if it happen again I guess I know how to fix it -p
