Hi Stickman :)

Just go to your stats page on the team ocuk website and scroll down you will see a section that tells you how many tiffys you have earned and how many points you need for your next one :)

Thanks guys. I'm running a 7970 (probably not ideal for seti i know) - will the changes to the cuda settings have any effect on ATI cards?

No it won't the app_info tbag sent will not work with the 7970

Heres the one I used with my 7970 when I ran it.

PHP:
<app_info> 
    <app>
        <name>setiathome_enhanced</name>
    </app>
    <file_info>
        <name>MB6_win_x86_SSE3_OpenCL_ATi_HD5_r390.exe</name>
        <executable/>
    </file_info>
    <file_info>
        <name>MultiBeam_Kernels_r390.cl</name>
        <executable/>
    </file_info>
    <app_version>
        <app_name>setiathome_enhanced</app_name>
        <version_num>610</version_num>
        <platform>windows_intelx86</platform>
        <avg_ncpus>0.10</avg_ncpus>
        <max_ncpus>0.10</max_ncpus>
        <plan_class>ati13ati</plan_class>
        <cmdline>-period_iterations_num 20 -instances_per_device 1</cmdline>
        <coproc>
            <type>ATI</type>
            <count>0.5</count>
        </coproc>
        <file_ref>
            <file_name>MB6_win_x86_SSE3_OpenCL_ATi_HD5_r390.exe</file_name>

Thou art forgiven Mr TBag - 'twas the thought that counts. :)

Found the ocuk stats page, thanks TTB. Now I am in your debt for all the help. :)

Thanks for the info file Mr Biffa sah. :)

Does anyone know where Boinc stores the app_info file by default? Had a quick search the other day and couldn't find it. That said, I noticed some folders in windows seven have special "deny access" rights set so that unless you change the permissions you can't read them even as admin.

They will be in C:\ProgramData\BOINC. The folder is hidden so you'll have to change your settings so you can see it.

:( Can't continue my job is coming to an end. I'll try and get back to it once I have a new job. :(

Gutted for you. It's such a crappy time right now but hold in there. A few people I know have been made redundant and ended up in a new job that they enjoy even more than the last with better wages.

...you'll need to go down a bit deeper that that. If you accepted the defaults at install, you'll need to go to:

C:\ProgramData\BOINC\projects\setiathome.berkeley.edu\

Mr Toxic - the cone of shame is now yours for an extra week!!!! :eek::D
