Folding & BOINC on the same machine?

[ms9cw]

Hi,

Is it possible to run Folding@Home & BOINC projects on the same machine? or would they cancel each other out trying to compete for resources?

It's possible, though each will only run half as fast. You might have to change Folding's priority setting from idle to low, so that BOINC doesn't take over.

If you have a dual cored PC then you can run a single instance of folding and a single instance of boinc (check the settings in boinc to limit it).
