1) Questions and Answers : Getting started : Potentially dumb question RE Screensaver (Message 97164) Posted 2 Jun 2020 by Threemoons Post: Show Graphics is greyed out...pause first??? No, you shouldn’t need to pause first. Is the button disabled even after clicking on a task (that’s showing Running in the Status column) in the list? Let me check; had meetings all morning and just saw this, thank you, will try and report back. And...finally remembered to use my Web settings to override Local settings. BADDA BING BADDA BOOM. Thank you so much! :) You rock. It feels good to use the Internet for Smart People Stuff again (ancient BitNet/CuNix Internet fossil here).

(In BOINC Manager’s advanced view, on the Tasks tab, select a running task and click the Show graphics button.) Thanks so much, didn't even know that feature was there, and I did forever on SETI. Let me check. Much appreciated! EDIT--darn it, Show Graphics is greyed out...pause first???
5) Questions and Answers : Getting started : Potentially dumb question RE Screensaver (Message 97139) Posted 1 Jun 2020 by Threemoons Post: Okay, using Rosetta@Home through BOINC as my screensaver. HOW can I access the "s" "b" and "c" options to change the display options when that wakes my computer up? Thanks for any tips around this; would really love to play around with this. Using Windows Pro 64. Thanks so much!
6) Message boards : Number crunching : Peer certificate cannot be authenticated with given CA certificates (Message 97062) Posted 31 May 2020 by Threemoons Post: Here is a link for people that trust me https://1drv.ms/u/s!AsVDg7OAm7-whqEqBXKHuOie0UoBKA?e=VHwBAP Thanks so much for this, made my life a lot easier! :)
7) Questions and Answers : Getting started : Failed to Add Project - Please try again later (Message 97058) Posted 31 May 2020 by Threemoons Post: See the Peer certificates thread in Number crunching. You need to download a new Security Certificates file, copy it to the programme files, BOINC directory. Then you should be able to add the project & get work. Found it, all set up now, thank you SO MUCH! :) Great community!

9) Questions and Answers : Getting started : Failed to Add Project - Please try again later (Message 97050) Posted 31 May 2020 by Threemoons Post: Let me also add that I tried adding the project directly outside of BOINC manager, still no luck.
10) Questions and Answers : Getting started : Failed to Add Project - Please try again later (Message 97037) Posted 31 May 2020 by Threemoons Post: Reviving this thread---can't seem to add this project. Have used BOINC for other projects, including Seti @Home. I followed the instructions for getting into Rosetta, after a few seconds of trying to communicate with the project I get this: Help please? Really want to get up and running on this now that SETI has wound down. Very much appreciated! Thanks so much for any help/insight.
