Max CPU is set to 4. CPDN getting 100% of resources. No other BOINCing is installed. Still only get 2 WU - how can I get two more WU assigned to this box???? ID: 2738 · Reply Quote

Might be worth mucking around with virtual memory options as well.. Found under general preferences. A good test would be to attach to another project such as S@H and see if all "four" processors are utilised. ID: 2806 · Reply Quote
