How do I delete a computer I no longer use for Boinc? I can't find the page. I see the merge but what would that do? To add,if merge is the way to get rid of computer,which way should I do it.Last time I merged the oldest compuer start date got lost. |

To delete a computer you have to wait until there are no results associated with that computer (can take a few weeks to several months). At this point there will be a delete link at the bottom of the computers page. ![]() ![]() BOINC WIKI |

At this point there will be a delete link at the bottom of the computers page. I have one computer but for some reason it is listed three times with three different ID numbers. Only one ID is crunching numbers, the other two are idle. I have no idea how this happened, it was about one week after I signed up. So what to do? |

You actaully only have two computers listed. You should be able to merge these two, the instructions are at the bottom of the screen when you select delete/merge. Something else you should know is that BOINC may not work properly when anything older than O/S X. You don't seem to be having any problems, but just thought I should mention it. |
