Hello, the UD client is listing the wrong processor for my computer, which I feel impacts performance. It says I have an Intel 06F6 2.7GHz processor when I actually have an Intel Core 2 Duo 2.66GHz. Is there a way to fix this?

Hello Fergman88,
The UD client was programmed back around 2002-2003. It does not know the names of the current processors. This does not affect the work. Lawrence |

Not quite the whole story, though: the UD client can't deal with dual core processors. It will only use one core.
I suggest you try BOINC instead. |

Use BOINC. BOINC will use both cores.

I'm sorry, you are wasting your time. WCG have already solved the problem - with BOINC.
The UD client is written by United Devices, and is no longer actively maintained. Use BOINC, it is (as I so frequently say) much better. Migration instructions here: http://www.wcgwiki.org/en/boinc/migration.cfm |

But i believe UD will disappear if they don´t follow the developements.. BOINC has a fairly good idea of what we have: 4/15/2007 10:15:40 PM||Starting BOINC client version 5.8.15 for windows_intelx86 4/15/2007 10:15:40 PM||log flags: task, file_xfer, sched_ops 4/15/2007 10:15:40 PM||Libraries: libcurl/7.16.0 OpenSSL/0.9.8a zlib/1.2.3 4/15/2007 10:15:40 PM||Data directory: C:\Program Files\BOINC 4/15/2007 10:15:41 PM||Processor: 1 AuthenticAMD AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 4000+ [x86 Family 15 Model 39 Stepping 1] [fpu tsc pae nx sse sse2 3dnow mmx] 4/15/2007 10:15:41 PM||Memory: 3.00 GB physical, 4.34 GB virtual 4/15/2007 10:15:41 PM||Disk: 186.30 GB total, 162.49 GB free
