one of my systems runs Einstein@home and Rosetta the event log says it ask for cpu amd/nvidia work . it asking for GPU and my system is maxed with GPU . can someone stop Rosetta from asking for GPU work I have 2 cores sitting idle

So it sounds like you wish to load up with GPU work from other projects, and the scheduler keeps holding out hope that R@h might suddenly start sending some, and this is making it difficult to get enough GPU work downloaded.

The BOINC Manager has a setting that allows you to designate that you do not wish to download GPU work for specific projects. It is called <exclude_gpu>.

The setting is placed in the optional client configuration file (cc_config.xml) in the BOINC Data Directory.

You designate a section for each GPU type and project pairing. If your machine does not have a given GPU type, you will see an error in the event log as BOINC Manager starts. You can either remove the sections for the GPU types you do not have, or you can simply ignore the error.

For example, on a Windows 7 machine, you can create a new file called cc_config.xml in the C:ProgramDataBOINC directory. The BOINC Manager must be ended and restarted for the change to take effect. The file contains XML sections such as the following:

<cc_config>
   <options>
      <exclude_gpu>
         <url>boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta</url>
         <type>NVIDIA</type>
      </exclude_gpu>
      <exclude_gpu>
         <url>boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta</url>
         <type>ATI</type>
      </exclude_gpu>
      <exclude_gpu>
         <url>boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta</url>
         <type>intel_gpu</type>
      </exclude_gpu>
      <exclude_gpu>
         <url>ralph.bakerlab.org</url>
         <type>NVIDIA</type>
      </exclude_gpu>
      <exclude_gpu>
         <url>ralph.bakerlab.org</url>
         <type>ATI</type>
      </exclude_gpu>
      <exclude_gpu>
         <url>ralph.bakerlab.org</url>
         <type>intel_gpu</type>
      </exclude_gpu>
   </options>
</cc_config>
