Hello All,
Hoping to run BOINC on my daughter's laptop at night (Toshiba Satellte A4, P4, 2.8GHz, 1GB RAM, 30GB HDD running XPSP2). Have my PC crunching - how can I add the second machine? Have Googled this and tried WCG and BOINC searches but still not sure. Can anyone please help? Thanks in advance, peahouse05

If you install the latest version of BOINC (5.4.9) (Get it from here) then just install as usual and enter your user name and password when prompted and it will just add that pc to you account.

I knew it was easy
 Just a point to make V. When I tryed to installed the new version. it wouldnt let me. Told me a .DLL was missing or summat and could not resume installation. That was early last week not tryed again since. Just deleted it off desktop "Parent's are the bone's on which their children sharpen their teeth" Never be afraid to do your best work and let the world enjoy it. Never let someone tell you not to try something because it's stupid. Turn off the recommended settings. Break your computer and learn to fix it. |

Just here This is for the Athlon 64 right?
Download and extract the contents straight into your BOINC folder, (Default being C:\Program file\BOINC\) Say yes to any overwriting of files, and you should be done. Download from here. post #61.
