Waco Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 I use multiple instances of the regular client on all the dual-core PC's, I never use the SMP client. I require it to run as a service. I'm running it as a service now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
road-runner Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 I'm running it as a service now. Have you rebooted to see if it starts back up yet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waco Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 Have you rebooted to see if it starts back up yet? It's listed as automatic in my services menu on my desktop (I haven't restarted it yet). On my HTPC it started up properly when I rebooted it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper Threaded Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 It's still a bit of a risk to run SMP as a service, sometimes it doesn't start up properly or worse, you lose a WU. I think it's better left to manual control. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingdingeling Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 yea, I agree, but if you're not near your computer the whole time, the service is better if you have others using that rig. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waco Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 yea, I agree, but if you're not near your computer the whole time, the service is better if you have others using that rig. I'm always around it but it's not hard to notice my cpu usage meter at zero instead of 100%. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
