My machine is running BOINC under my username (administrator account - Windows XP Pro). Is it possible to get my WU to continue running when someone else is logged on to my machine? If so, what do I need to do? Thanks Piers |

Hi Pierce, You have to run it as a service, go to "http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/quick_faq.php" there you find something like Running BOINC as a service, read it and do it and you'll have what you want. Suc6, Browny |

Thanks. Is there any way to see the status of the WU as I no longer have access to the GUI or the project window. Thanks again Piers |

> ... Is there any way to see the status of > the WU as I no longer have access to the GUI or the project window. progress.bat (path and drive need to be changed) : d: cd \\boinc findstr "fraction_done result_name" client_state.xml pause Sure not too fancy but maybe it's sufficient :-) |
