I have solution for problem with showing graphics in BOINC. The only thing you have to do is: 1. Open \"Computer Management\" (Right click on \"My Computer\" and click on \"Maintenace\") 2. Open \"Services and applications\" and select \"Services\". 3. Find service called \"BOINC\", double click on it and open the second tab called \"Login\". 4. Set login from \"This account:\" to \"Local system account\" and click \"OK\" to save chcanges. And that\'s it! Restart service or computer and graphics will show now! It is not needed to allow service to interact with desktop. All work well (TESTED). |

Well, I\'ve tried that on Windows XP and although BOINC runs, the graphics button is grayed out. |

Well, I\'ve tried that on Windows XP and although BOINC runs, the graphics button is grayed out. Try ticking the \'interact with desktop\' box instead or as well. Also, remember to stop and restart the BOINC service afterwards for the changes to take effect. Ps: I often forget to highlight the workunit before clicking \'Show Graphics\', that will also leave the button greyed out :) Edit: spelling and added PS Need Help? Try the excellent Unofficial BOINC Wiki! We are the BOINC. Prepare to be assimilated. 'anthrax beats WinXP' - The Register |
