Multiple OS's

Greetings,
I have a question about Installing Boinc on Multiple OS's
I have WinXP pro 32bit and Vista(or rather Shmista wink) Ultimate 64bit
my Question is would it cause problem(to WCG my account or other projects) if I'll run it on both? is there a need for a special configuration?
thanks in advance

Re: Multiple OS's

Hi Warrior of Dawn,

You can even run a dual boot of Windows XP and Windows Vista on the same machine with just 1 client. Seen reports of people doing this successfully. Both though need to be 32 bit or 64bit. Though WCG only runs 32 bit sciences only, a few other projects use 64 bit science which would not work if booting into a 32 bit OS.... you get the picture.

cheers
