Topic 191775

I dont know why i can't see the graphics of the stuff i'm doing. Along with that, the screen saver isn't working either. A black screen comes one and the BOINC symbol bounces around, but that's pretty much it. No constellations or anything. Any suggestions?

Hmmmm...

It looks like you are returning results.

One thing to check is that BOINC didn't somehow get suspended or your preferences didn't get changed as far as doing work while computer is in use.

What happens when you hit the show graphics button in BM?

Is this a new thing?

Any changes in software, MS updates, driver updates, changes in AV or firewalls?

I'll try to point the more techie people here since the cafe is more for fun than problem solving.

If you using a service

If you using a service install that is normal, you have to modify the service settings to see the graphics.

seeing without seeing is something the blind learn to do, and seeing beyond vision can be a gift.

Black screen and a bouncy


Black screen and a bouncy BOINC symbol usually means you are crunching a project without a graphic screensaver. Are you attached to more than one project?
