That's all I'm getting in my screensaver. The password checkbox has been explicity unchecked. (I have an ATI Rage card and am running Win2K.) How do I fix this? Jeez! All I want to do is run SETI@home like I used to! ID: 174 ·

Could you lookup the version of boinc.scr in c:\\windows? This really sounds like a case of an older screensaver. ----- Rom BOINC Development Team, U.C. Berkeley My Blog ID: 178 ·

OK, this probably happened when I installed one of the versions (there's like, server and standalone or something?), and it didn't do anything, so I installed the other. So then, what WAS I supposed to do? (I would think these guys'd be getting this question so much, they'd put up a set of simplified instructions and direct everyone there in self-defense.) ID: 194 ·
