1) Questions and Answers : Windows : Windows 2008 32bit (Message 35721)

This is from the FAQ:

Domain Controller Incompatibility
The present range of BOINC 6.2 is incompatible with Domain Controllers, meaning that you cannot install it on your system if it is a DC. This is because the developers used the Local Account API\'s instead of the Global Account API\'s.

A fix for this will be available in BOINC 6.4


However, 6.4.5 was rushed out so as to have a version which supported CUDA. Because of this, a lot of changes were left out, possibly including the change which would allow 6.* to be used on domain controllers.


OK, good to know. But my server is not a domain controller.

I am using BM 6.4.5. I connect to the server using remote desktop with /admin switch. It is a P4 machine with 1.5 GB of memory.

Hi,

Just started using BOINC and it runs very well on my 32bit Vista machine but it freezes on my 32bit Windows 2008 server. Anybody else tried to use Windows 2008?
