First go here to download Boinc https://boinc.berkeley.edu/ Then install Boinc. Once installed there will be an option to "add a project" You should see a list of projects, scroll down to SETI@Home and add. Boinc will contact the project and you will then be given the option to create a new account, or log in with an existing one. I assume you will want to keep you existing SETI@ Home account so log in with that. If all is well Boinc will automatically download your first work units and should start processing, you will only get a few units at first until the servers work out how quickly your machine can process work units. All of the above is from memory so if you come across something not 100% correct come back here for advice. |

Install boinc, start boinc, add seti as a project, hit the "returning user" then enter the same email address as you used for your first computer. Sit back and enjoy watching the productivity of yor little farm. Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe? |
