Thanks bobuk
The worst problem i had was trying to get the boinc client to connect while at work, the smoothwall proxy we use was stopping it.
All sorted now tho.

Welcome aboard Sah!
If you want your RAC to shoot up then it might be worth having a look at an ATI HD4850, HD4870 which can run Milkyway@Home with a modified client. You can be getting in the region of 2,500 credits/ hour "IF" there is enough work which is a bit tricky at the moment since there are a lot of people trying to do it.
