Re: Nice and cheap ($70) quad core tablet at Wal-Mart!

Brandon,
Thanks for the heads up on the Ematic 7" Tablet 8GB Memory Quad Core.
A good deal for $70. Now that I've got it crunching it's a great deal as I picked up 3 Beta wu's

Thanks again,
yoro42

Re: Nice and cheap ($70) quad core tablet at Wal-Mart!

Yoro42, you're welcome and I'm glad you got it working ok!

With my tablet in order to crunch it has to be both plugged in (even at full charge) and the screen has to be off. Is it the same way with yours? It's not a big deal to me because I just leave it alone crunching and barely use it for other things, I just thought it was weird the screen has to be off. As soon as I turn the screen on the tasks will start suspending.

Go to the BOINC preferences and disable an option there about the screen.

As you probably know by now just un-check the General Preference
"_ Pause computation when screen is on"
AND the 1st three boxes are checked.

I just leave mine on all the time as well. To make it work on battery tap the Power sources for computation to see all four of them.
