Probably worth bookmarking the full list page which gets updated regulary including linux versions: http://boinc.berkeley.edu/download_all.php
AWW I knew I was missing something... lol I was installing the WCG version not the boinc version. As a matter of fact I need to switch my i7 970 x6 over to the x64 bit version as well... Thanks KieX!

EDIT: I don't use my 970 everyday since I got my 2600k.. hehehe

You can do the same with the version from boinc. In the install phase, click on advanced, then select the service (protected application execution). Would need a complete un-install of previous version though. But 10% PPD is definitely worth the little hassle.

Thanks! I'll do that! So, checking that creates a service? Sweet! I don't monitor all my rigs all the time.. Most I just vnc to check on. So adding a service is a nice feature.

Yep, it's a real treat. Not sure how to disable the BOINC manager for other user though, still need to learn that. I moved from VNC to TeamViewer since I can use from phone without setting up silly firewall rules. Shows a list of connected clients too, which tells me if I have a rig down.

anyway, this is pie thread so err.. guess I'll see you inching closer to my slice with this help

Damn!
I didn't know there was two different versions, I'm running the WCG klient from the WCG site on all my riggs should I switch?
Do I have to do a full uninstall - reinstall?

Afraid so, it's changing code base from 32bit to 64bit. But each rig could potentially yield up to 10% more. I would.

OK, need to do some changes here then. I'm setting "no new tasks" and let the riggs run until they are empty before I switch.

I think you'll get at least 1000pts on the last update of the day and that should give you 8th plac at least.
