Hi,
I had one ATI card for a while and was running the optimised milkyway app on that one pc, but don't have the card now - so I removed milkyway. I never ran it on any other machines.

But now on this (and all my other machines), when boinc starts it says:
General Prefs: from http://...milkyway../

It's appearing on machines that have never run milkyway. How do I remove/reset this?

Thanks,
Far

That's probably because MW is the last project prefs you have updated.

Just change the general prefs at any one project of your choice.
From the next time any of your machines contacts that project, the general prefs for are taken from there.

Ahhh I understand.

Updated pref's from another project, and its now gone generic and says "no general pref's, using defaults"

Thanks
