My experience with BOINC OS

in #boinc • 8 years ago

So, I decided to install and test out BOINC OS, which is made by @delta1512. Unfortunately I could not make it work with my spare hardware which is:

  • Intel Core 2 Duo E4300
  • AMD Radeon HD7770
  • ASUS P5B Deluxe
  • 2.5GB of Patriot DDR 2 RAM
  • Corsair VS550 PSU
  • Seagate Barracuda 80GB ATA HDD.

I tried to run it using two different (8 GB and 16GB) memory sticks and using external DVD Drive with image written to an DVD-RW disc.

PC just didn't boot (it has BIOS not UEFI, it is old MOBO); It was automatically passing to second boot option, no matter how I or what image of BOINC OS I have been using.

Any help, ideas how to boot this on my PC?

    Its unfortunate that it doesn't work @jarric but can I suggest you send @delta1512 an email (boincosdelta @ gmail.com) as mentioned in his article 4 days ago. I'm sure he will be able to answer your question much faster this way.

    I thought that there might be someone who managed to boot it on an non UEFI BIOS.
