Hey Guys,

AT first sorry for my bad English. I hope you will get my point.

I started rosetta@home project and primegen.
Now i wanted to start mor the(a?)n one task..
But i couldn't. Why? Should i edit my preferences? Or does BOINC only allow to work on one task?

Hope you get it
Hope for help
Thank you for waste some time x)

Your machine only has one CPU, so BOINC will only run a single task at a time. It may have others downloaded and ready to run, but only one with actually be running. BOINC will alternate between the two projects for you automatically to achieve the resource shares you have established (see the Projects tab of the BOINC Manager).

If you had a hyperthreaded CPU or a dual core, then BOINC can be configured to run one task on each to use 100% of the machine's CPU if you wish.
