Visit the project preferences page for your account, and deselect 'Use CPU'. |

I wan the other computers on that project to use the cpu, only one computer should only use gpu There are two different places for preferences on project websites. One is the Computing preferences page, which is global, which means that when you change something here, it will propagate to all the projects you've got added, available at the website's computing preferences on the same venue. The second is the Project preferences page, where you set specific preferences for that project. Things like if you want to use the CPU, or the Nvidia, ATI or Intel GPU, the default computer location (venue) etc. etc. In the case of Milkyway, that is at http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/prefs.php?subset=project, where if you read along, you will find Use CPU. These preferences are for Milkyway only, they do not propagate to any other project. |
