When I try to use the following in an xml file (sourced from Word or IE or any xml editor, tried several) and saved as file type xml:
<cc_config>
<options>
<ncpus>5</ncpus>
</options>
</cc_config>
I get the following error message in BOINC Manager:
Missing start tag in cc_config.xml
They seem to be nested correctly etc - any clues?

1)use notepad ONLY (or FAR embedded editor) IE too clever with XML to be good for it - it change format as it like, not as BOINC like.
2) cc_config is NEEDED look first page.

Notepad did the trick, many thanks ;D
And a note of greatful thanks for all that you do with these apps, I know its been said many times, but it always bares repeating - you do a wonderful job that makes so many peoples lives a lot easier - Thank You ;)

What are the proper settings to make SETI CUDA run all the time, but the computer processors to run only when the machine is idle?
is that possible?
Also, I have set the # of ncpus to 3 (dual core + 9800 GT), but in the TASKS it shows THREE "enhanced" tasks running at the same time. Is that correct??

1)it's BOINC defualt behavior - CPU app running only when CPU idle from another tasks, casue app priority is only 1 point higher than idle process. All another ready to run process will force science app to free CPU (Win OS will do that actually of course).
2) If one of them shows CPU time close to zero - yes, it's OK.
