Hi All, I have a new Dell laptop with a Xeon E3-1535M CPU and NVIDIA M3000 graphics card. When I run SETI@home Task Manger shows all 8 cores are 100% busy. Since the CPUs are busy I would assume the GPU is not being used. If the GPU was being used would Task Manager say the CPU is idle? Below is my log.

Thanks... That would explain it! The version numbers are a bit confusing to me. I see on the main page it say Version 8 was released on Jan 1, 2016 yet my log shows version 7.6.22. Cheers Mark |

Thanks... That would explain it! BOINC is the program that SETI@Home runs on. BOINC is 7.6.22 Many other distributed computing applications use BOINC The SETI@Home application is V8 |
