#1 BETA: Auto Shutdown & Restart
Posted: Thu Sep 25, 2008 12:03 am
Seems as though the topic regarding boinc 6.3.11 doesn't seem to want to load for some odd reason (something about timing out after 30 seconds due to some error on line 222), so i decided to start another post.
I created a program based upon what seems to be a problem with PS3 Grid. For those people who's PC's crash if running PS3 Grid for a long time.
Basically my program will allow you to automatically re-start your computer at a certain point in the day/night. Thus, clearing any problems that arise when windows has been running for too long.
Features (if enabled):
- Automatically start up on the user you are logged in as
- Automatically remember the last time the program was set to shutdown the PC, and automatically set the PC to shutdown at the same time the next time the program is run.
- Select whether you want to simply restart (default option) or shutdown (highly unlikely for the dedicated boinc'ers, but easy to design so i added it in).
I built this within about 30 mins. So it isn't very good looking on the interface, but should do the job fine.
If you want the source code to compile it yourself, or to tinker around and design your own application just PM me and i shall send it to you.
