Once you've got BOINC running you can view the globe at any time by opening up the BOINC interface (double click on the <b><i>B</i></b> icon in the system tray), left click on the work tab, right click on the workunit and selecting the graphics option. Bear in mind that, depending on your graphics card, displaying the graphics might use a lot of processing power, and the same thing goes for the BOINC screensaver. If you need any more help just ask for it ;) "The ultimate test of a moral society is the kind of world that it leaves to its children." - Dietrich Bonhoeffer ID: 6522 · Reply Quote
