I can launch the BOINC installer and repair the BOINC manager and then launch the BOINC manager, but the problem returns each time the computer is restarted. I tried creating a simple cc.config.xml file and placed in in the ProgramData/BOINC folder, but this just resulted in a black box on the screen and BOINC manager didn't launch. Computer: Intel NUC 13 Extreme CPU :Intel 9l-13900K processor GPU: EVGA 3090 XC3 Ultra GPU Driver: Nvidia GeForce 531.29 This is the log after a repair and launch of BOINC manager. Is the problem that BOINC is trying to use the intel_gpu instead of the Nvidia and also the missing coprocessor?

The simplest method of creating a cc_config.xml file is with the BOINC Manager. Simply open the Manager and select the Options >> Event Log Options and toggle a previously unselected logging option. That will create a fully populated cc_config.xml file. I recommend toggling the sched_op_debug logging option as it is most useful and doesn't spam unnecessary messaging into the Event Log.

That worked after I uninstalled BOINC and deleted the ProgramData/BOINC folder and did a new install. That fixed the prior problems with using the Intel instead of the Nvidia GPU and the missing coprocessor. Atr first, I still got the "cc.config.xml file not found using default setting" message and then the BOINC manager did not load. After following your instructions to create a cc.config.xml file, the BOINC manager did load correctly after restarting. Thanks again. ID: 111382 ·
