Just a few points to check locally, so yours can be sure the optimized application is really running:
1. on windows open the taskmanager's process list and look for the name of the application. That should be the same as the name of the application put into the projects/setiathome.berkeley.edu folder. Otherwise stock might still be running.
2. on all boinc versions open the slots/x folder (x = 0,1,...). There should be a link named same as the opt. application put into the projects/setiathome.berkeley.edu folder. If that link has still the name of the stock application stock is still used.
3. if sure that the correct optimized application is used, watch Boinc in advanced view while a computation error occurs. Right after the computation error has happened stop Boinc with File/Exit. Goto the slots/x folder that was used for crunching the erroneous work unit. Open the stderr.txt file with an editor (notepad, wordpad or similar). What error messages are listed there ?
russkris:
he has the SSE2 version crunching with no errors. but he cant see any improvement...
maybe running the wrong version?
Jason G:
I guess the next question might be "What is he looking at and seeing no improvement?" ... The only really valid comparisons are same angle range tasks' cpu time, and it couldn't really have been crunching long enough to accumulate some of the same angle range, for comparison, as was run with the stock application could it ?
RAC ( Recent Average Credit ) takes about three weeks to rise & stabilise if that's what he's looking at ...

I dont really know to tell you the truth... Possible daily output, via the TN stats site
