Although I have said no work while in use and work only after idle for 3 minutes, BOINC is running projects 100% of the time causing my free memory to become very low. What do I need to do?

Found answer to problem. Set Manager to run based on preferences instead of always.

After you set the preferences did you go to the bottom of that list and click update preferences and then did you start BOINC and hi lite project and then click update ?????

Did exactly that and now it's performing perfectly. At this very moment I have 188 megs available instead of 60-something. Thanks.
