Working app_info files

[nanoprobe]

Mismatch in boinc version and use of app_config/app_info

can't remember the exact version number but I think it was boinc 7.0.42 and later require app config or at least prior to that it doesn't work.

app_config files replace app_info which must be deleted

You are correct OC. 7.0.40 or above to use app_config. Do not use app_info in 7.0.40 or above. You'll be stuck with WUs that won't report.

Ah, thank you. Does the content of the file stay the same?

I took a chance, it's now running four WUs

Update:
I uninstalled 7.0.59, installed 7.0.58, same issue
Then I tried Driver sweeper, removed all the NVidia hidden files and reg entries, booted, did a fresh install of 7.0.58 and sam thing and this in the log:

They are starting and going to computational error in the same second..
Well I've been wanting to replace this board with a Intel Z77 board I have and I guess this is the motivation to do so..

MM, Can you confirm that you followed these steps to use Drive Sweeper..

1- Un-install AMD CAT 13.1 and delete C:\AMD\Support\13-1_vista_win7_win8_64_dd_ccc_whql
2- re-boot in safe mode
3- Use drive sweeper to remove Nvidia and ATI/AMD display drivers
4- Do normal OS re-boot & re-install AMD CAT 13.1
5- Re-start system
6- re-start BOINC

No, I did exactly what I said above..Didn't see the need to remove the ATI 13.1 drivers since that is what i needed to use..
Sort of made up my mind tonight that I'm replacing the board and will have a fresh formatted drive to start with.

I had an issue when I messed with drivers. The WUs would immediately error out upon starting. I cleared them(drivers) out and reinstalled everything and the problem was fixed. But if you don't buy that, it's a good enough excuse to get a new board! Will this board be hypothetical like the other one?

No. it's for the 2600K..
Intel DZ77RE-75K
It's actually a board I sold to a guy here, someone stepped on the box in shipping and he sent it back to me and I replaced it..
One of the dimm locks is broken off but I think it's usable..Not sellable but usable and a big step up from that first gen Intel board that the 2600K is in now.
This is the board:

@OJ -
max_concurrent is the total you want for both CPU and GPU

[[XC] Oj101]

CPU usage now sitting at 100 % with 22 CPU tasks and four GPU tasks in progress, many thanks!

[[XC] Oj101]

So I want it like this?

<app_config>
   <app>
      <name>hcc1</name>
      <max_concurrent>26</max_concurrent>
      <gpu_versions>
          <gpu_usage>.25</gpu_usage>
          <cpu_usage>0.5</cpu_usage>
      </gpu_versions>
   </app>
</app_config>
