How do I log in manually, since the program does not prompt me to do so in boinc manager startup and hence I get "unable to connect to the core client".

On the advanced menu there is a "select computer". Choose that, type "localhost" without quotes in the host name field, tab to the password field and OK [no password]. The password with localhost is autofill.
----------------------------------------Of course, if there is no boinc.exe running at user or service level, it wont be able to connect, so plz check that in the Task Manager. --//-- [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at Dec 16, 2011 2:56:31 PM] |

Too fast... I wrote boinc.exe, without the mgr part. Is that running? BOINC consists of a core client and the GUI Boincmgr.exe, through which you can give BOINC instructions. BOINC does not need boincmgr to operate.
