Hi everybody I have a problem regarding a computer to setup boinc in a xp familial environment with numerous users.

The computer is taking the workload fine on a the administration account. But it is the other users accounts that run most of the time and therefore no work gets done.

How do I set up boinc on the others users as well ? I already try to install boinc in the other users environment to no avail.

Thanks in advance!

If you are running BOINC 5.x, run the installer and choose the "Service Install" when asked. If you are running BOINC 6.x, run the installer and ensure "Protected application execution" is checked. This causes BOINC to run regardless of who is logged in, and it will also run at the Windows XP Login screen.
