I am running mac os 10.3.9 and bonic 4.43. with both seti and climate prediction.
I am unable to see the screen saver. I get the message \" boinc is not executing any applications with graphics.

How do I get my screen saver graphics to work?

In the work tab \"show graphics\" is grayed out

Thanks in Advance

It sounds as though it's not so much 'getting the screen saver to work', as getting hadsm to work. The screen saver uses the data from the running model as it's display.
And it's NOT a good idea to use any screen saver, as it takes up cpu time.

If you have a model in the Work tab, what is displayed under Status?

But what are they displaying under Status? Does it say Running? If at least one isn't running, then the core programs are not running, or possibly BOINC isn't.
