How do you stop 1 gpu from crunching?

I created a file called "cc_config.xml" with the following content

<cc_config>
<no_cpu>1</no_cpu>
</cc_config>

but nothing happens. It still uses 2 cores.

Close, but not quite.

So it should be

<cc_config> 
  <options>
    <ncpus>1</ncpus>
  </options>
</cc_config>

<ncpus>N</ncpus>
Act as if there were N CPUs; i.e. to simulate 2 CPUs on a machine that has only 1. To use the number of available CPUs, set the value to -1 (was 0 which in newer clients really means zero to e.g. only allow GPU computing).

If you're using the BOINC manager, in advanced view, you can click on [Tools] [Computing Preferences], and under the "processor usage" tab, near the bottom of the form, change "on multiprocessor systems, use at most" to 50%.

Thank you both, it's now working.

You can use prolasso assigning one of the cores to crunch and the other to make all the usual work of the computer. Prolasso is free. Why don't you take a look on it.
