I posted the following this morning at the Moo message board:

I 'think' I figured out what the problem with Moo was/is. Kidding on the 'I', even a blind squirrel can find an acorn.

I had booted/rebooted/booted/rebooted started boinc/stopped boinc/restarted/stopped it, etc, changed as many settings as carter has pills.

I had about 3 days worth of WU's to crunch and set the project to no new downloads.

I'm sure you could tell from some of my posts I was frustrated as hell.

In spite of my better judgement, I decided to 'allow new tasks', received 1 download, suddenly, instead of running two tasks it was running one task (running 0.05 cpu's + 2.00 ATI GPU's (device 0)) Before it was running 2 tasks with +1.00 gpu (device 0) and another (device 1)

It's still crunching the cpu but the run time is way down, I 'think', to something reasonable. If I can get more WU's I'll get a better idea.

My question (not to anyone in particular) is why did 'allowing new tasks' suddenly tell the computer to run one work unit instead of two and use both gpu's to do it, when stopping/starting BOINC didn't, even when it involved setting changes????

[edit] I ran about 20 WU's since and everything is fine, what a strange situation. Maybe the project guru has input?
