Will BOINC projects run without me being logged on? I need a new screen. Until it is here, is there any point turning the computer on, hence the question.

Depends what operating system you run, and how BOINC was installed.

If BOINC was installed "as a service" - usual under Linux, an optional choice under Windows - yes, it'll run.

If BOINC was installed in "user" mode - possible under Linux, normal under Windows - it won't.

I can't advise about Apple Macs.

But if you can temporarily borrow a screen from another machine, and use that to log on, BOINC will keep running even if you disconnect the borrowed screen and return it.

I don't have another screen myself, and wouldn't know how to get hold of one as a stopgap. I just hate to loose work units. i need to research current monitor technology, decide, order and WAIT. My last order took ten days to arrive. Thanks Richard.
