I have installed BOINC and attached projects under Windows 7, but it only runs when I logged in. I want it to run even when I am not logged in. Other user accounts are Standard/Limited users.

Thanks

The problem is none of my projects are running when others are logged in. My CPU is stil 99% idle. If I log them out, and log in as me, then 3 of 4 cores will use 75% of CPU, based on my preference.

Are there settings that I can change, or should I try uninstall and re-install BOINC?

Thanks

Thanks Dagorath. It works fine now. I thought PAE mode would somehow limit the BOINC project execution or features, and I didn't want other users to change my project settings. But it's good regardless.
