&gt; You should be able to access this if you dig down to the <i>edit general
&gt; preferences screen</i>. For obvious reasons, it doesn't apply if <i>Do work
&gt; while computer is in use?</i> is set to yes.
&gt;
&gt; If you don't have this, what BOINC version are you using?
&gt;

Version 4.05

What happened to the idle time in the preferences? I used to them when they were their because I can\'t have BOINC using up 100% of my prosesser when I am using my computer. Now they are gon and even if I lower the resource share it still used 100% of my prosesser. BRING BACK THE IDLE TIME!

Sorry if I sound rude in this but even though I have 2.4 ghz my computer runs slow when BOINC is running.
