Native BOINC client doesn't start computation after set idle time

Native BOINC client doesn't start computation after set idle time

Hello!

 Actually, the subject: even if I'm leaving my laptop overnight, computation doesn't start after set idle time (in the morning I saw no progress in computation).

The screenshot of setting is here: http://imageplay.net/view/tya22289395/Settings, I'm running Windows 7 (x64) Professional, BOINC ver. 7.0.2

 Can you assist, please?

What do you have in the next menu Activity:

You have to select  "run based on preferences"

The same for the GPU if you have GPU capabilites.

And for the preferences use grid republic to set them.

 So delete the local preference you have made.

 After a change on grid republic you have to synchronise with the boinc client, in the tool Menu.

I'd prefer to set up preferences within a client, but it happened the reason is not in GR settings.

 The point was that in global settings (which are stored in global_prefs.xml file which is the folder with data for computation) there is a very wierd setting: <suspend_if_no_recent_input>0</suspend_if_no_recent_input> (that's already fixed one string). I see no sense in such a setting -- why computation should stop if computer is idle for 5 minutes??? After I chaged value to 0 -- everything went fine.
