Installation (Vista)

From World Community Grid Wiki

If you want step by step directions, use the installation walkthrough (Vista).

[edit] Quick start

Download the installer from the World Community Grid website.

• Leave the folder selections at the default values.
• Using the screensaver or not is your decision. You can change your decision later.
• We strongly recommend selecting "Install as a service and run under a restricted account".
• Most members will want to leave "Allow all users on this computer to manage the World Community Grid - BOINC software" unselected.
