ever since i downloaded 6.12.33, it won't run any projects.
just constantly says "CPU usage too high".
i have it set to 90% and it says that even if i'm running no other programs (and i have a monitor that says it's usually running 40% of the processors).

what gives?

And if that doesn't help, you must be using the local preferences which override all the same web-preferences. You must either set that preference in the local preferences, or clear them. (BOINC Manager->Advanced view->Tools->Computing preferences)
