WCG and Vista?

Post by UBT - Timbo »

Hi all,

According to the WCG website, their (proprietary) UD client (i.e. NOT the BOINC client), doesn't support Windows Vista.

As such, can anyone substantiate, if this is the case? Or maybe a workaround?

(One of our WCG members has upgraded to Vista, and finds that the UD client won't work !!).

regards,

Tim

In the short time I was crunching for WCG using the UD client (before I switched to Boinc) it worked fine on my Vista Premium PC, although it only used one of the cores on my dual core machine.
