I assume that you are using UD and not BOINC. Wherever you installed the UD program is the disk drive of concern. The program allows for a maximum of 10Gb. Doing this can help the point total a bit, but at the moment it doesn't use nearly that much. It's a historical thing.

Naturally, you are free to move the contents of the UD directory and subdirectories to a different disk drive if you want. It's not tied to the Windows registry at all. Just exit the program and icon to close everything if you mess with it, then start it again as usual.

Over the next few months, the UD version will be going away and everything must run on BOINC. Food for thought.

Hi,

If you downloaded 5.10.22 of BOINC from the WCG page, the install process will ask you if UD should be uninstalled. Say yes, as UD is being phased out.

It also asks where to install. If Vista, it's recommended to put it somewhere else, but not in the c:\program files\ directory structure. Given you have lots of space on your second partition, put it in for instance D:\BOINC\.

cheers

D., Long as there are ought's and No Guarantees and the future 6.x version is moving the actual data out to the All Users group, you wont find me making recommendation to the contrary ;P

Didactylos, I have nothing against Boinc running fine under Vista (I am still under XP for as long as I can), but agadino also said that he has a small c: partition. If he wants to have a few WUs in queue and/or eventually try some African Climate WUs he would be safer with Boinc in his d: partition, imho.

Cheers. Jean.
