I have a laptop (Vista) which doesn\'t have a connection to the internet and a desktop pc (Win XP) which does.
I installed boinc on both systems with no problems.
So I did the following: I downloaded a workunit on my desktop pc and copied the folder to the laptops hd.
I do the same for other projects.
Now, the problem is that when I click in Boinc to show the graphics, the map doesn\'t show up. I can only see the text and the blue at left side.
When I run it on Win Xp, I experience no problems at all.

Any suggestions to fix this?
PS: latest updates of win Vista are installed, so are the latest drivers.

BOINC does not support graphics on vista yet. Look for this in the 6.x.x version of BOINC. Even then individual projects may take some time updating their graphics code to work with vista.
