When my BOINC screensaver starts, the graphics aren't displayed. All I get is a black screen. I'm using Windows Vista Home Basic SP1. ID: 53402 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

I have been hesitant to report it since I am using the test versions of the client. BOINC WIKI BOINCing since 2002/12/8 ID: 53409 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

I thought a screensaver used the appication graphics? If this is the case then the mini tasks won't have much of a screensaver. If its a 5.96 then theres something wrong.

Since I run all my servers/pcs headless and run the software as a service that does not interact with the desktop, I forget the screen savers are there! lol. I know how to make them work, but why bother bogging down the PC if it is crunching! :-) There's a bug in the current minirosetta screensaver that should hopefully be fixed in the next update.
