New \"cruncher\" is underway (i7-920, overclocked). Will BOINC/CPDN work on the OS mentioned? |

Yes it will, I have been running various models in BOINC 6.2.19 under Windows 7 Beta 64bit without problem. Trickles, final uploads & downloads all have taken place without any issues. Using dual core AMD Athlon 4800+, @ stock speed + 2Gb RAM. |

Beezlebub has confirmed that his installation was 32-bit, so Windows 7 seems fine in both configurations. |

I have been using Windows 7 x64 for a month and a half with no apparent problems on an Asus/Nvidia MB with an Athlon 4000+ and 2 GB RAM @ stock speed. I (very) recently increased the speed 5%. With a different CPU I overclocked way higher and while the system seemed stable my SETI results seemed corrupted and I was getting no credit for half of them. The OS was Windows 2000 but I don\'t think the OS would have made a difference. Win 7 seems comfortable with BOINC/SETI and BOINC/CPDN. I\'m also running Folding@Home simultaneously. |
