Does the message tab give any useful info on the problem?

In these messages BOINC is asking work for you GPU. Since Rosetta does not have a GPU app, that particular request will never be successful. I see no further problems myself. You could try reverting to an earlier version of BOINC, 6.4.7 for example.


I understand Rosetta doesn have any GPU task, but BOINC is not requesting any CPU tasks. That's the problem.

System is now receiving tasks. 4 Running, 4 Ready to start
Thanks for the replies anyway.

I'm just glad to contribute to the project.

The scheduler in the recent builds (or at least in 6.6.36) is backwards - its so frustrating hitting 'update' on the project tab and then watching it request GPU tasks again and again while the CPU sits waiting!

Glad you got some work now ;)
