You're almost there, Sun, and BAP got you home in the msg before this one. Be sure client-type has the hyphen. Hint: I couldn't find the OK or Save buttons until I thought to maximize the windows.

The above takes care of the Step 1 stuff from BAP's original quoted directions, then go back to his msg and pick up after that and do the stuff that I ERRANTLY told you not to do. That stuff dedicates a core to a GPU and takes the core from SMP, thus preventing SMP from being continually halted each time the GPU wants it.

Kapowerrific! Mr. Green

ArVee,

No problem - shoot, I lose track of my own computers and what's in 'em - how can you be expected to keep track!?!?

I'm running Version 7.2.9 on Hollywood. I'm not seeing where to do that "Advanced" thing - Do I want the "Expert" tab? One side of it shows "Extra client options" and lists smp true and gpu true. The right side of that window is "Extra core options" and that is empty.

I'm not seeing anything under the "Advanced" tab that references client type or anything.

Under the "Slots Tab" if I double-click on either gpu or smp, it pops up another windo - that has a section on SMP - it shows a -1 under CPU - btw - I know Hollywood is an i7, and that she's a quad core - but not sure if she hyper-threads or anything. There is a GPU section - it's showing the "GPU Indes - shows a -1 there. Then under "GPU Core Indices (Expert Only) area - it's showing a -1 under opencl-index and a -1 uncer cuda-index. There is a section entitled "Extra slot options (expert only) that is blank - has a header in the blank space for Name and then Value. So I'm lost on that "client type" and "Advanced" addition.

Right now, the 2 computers here at home are really purring and have jumped up in points - they're all three getting those 14,000 pointers that we were getting a while back and both Hollywood and Dreamer are getting some work units that jump up their CPU production as well.

I know that's all clear as mud - wish I could do a couple of screen shots - I went into the guide for installing client 7 to see if I could reference screen shots in that - but it's for the newer client yet. Not a whole lot of difference, but a little bit of difference.

Sun :-)
