Simplicity itself! Although it doesn't show what process is using the GPU, what it does show is conclusive evidence that just the one BOINC project is using it. At the time I tried it, that is; I'll have to keep checking as the BOINC manager cycles around the projects. Just what the doctor ordered. Thanks Marc. -- Regards, Peter.
