When it shifts to CPDN, will the screensaver graphics change to CPDN, too? Thanks! ID: 19360 · Reply Quote

The best thing is to set your Windows screensaver to blank, and view graphics from the Work tab of BOINC Manager. Select the running workunit and click on the graphics button. That way, you aren\'t wasting processing power when not looking at the graphics. EDIT See this thread. ID: 19365 · Reply Quote
