Run BOINC only on GPU and not CPU?

[criccio]

I just upgraded my main rigs 8800GT to a 4890 and put the 8800GT in my WHS box. I want to run BOINC fulltime on it (SETI@Home Lunatics Unified Installer) but I only want it to use the GPU. The CPU (single core Athlon 3500+ is slow enough as it is and I want it free for other things.

How do I configure BOINC to do this?

Thanks.

On a related note, I can't seem to get BOINC to download any work for my 4890 even though the BOINC site says ATI GPU's are now supported.

the client supports ATI cards but the project has to support them as well.. Seti doesnt support ATI cards yet.. i believe the only projects that do are milkyway@home and Collatz Conjecture..

as far as making it only run the gpu WU's instead of cpu you can usually set it on the website.. seti i believe you can do that as well.. or you can tell the client to use 0% of the cpu.. ive never done it so im not totally sure..

What sirmonkey said about adjusting settings on the project website is certainly accurate for GPUgrid, they have settings on the preferences page for that, I'd suspect the other GPU projects are similar.

But it sounds like you've got bigger issues...
