Greetings all.

I still can't figure out why BOINC is having so many issues with my new computer. Core i5 3570k moderately overclocked to 4.4GHz with good thermals, two Geforce 670 GTX cards (Keplar) in SLI mode, 16 GB of RAM, Windows 7 Professional 64-bit... I can easily tackle and pass any benchmark or diagnostic tool I throw at the computer... but BOINC 7 won't run.

Boinc 7.0.x simply won't run. the BOINC manager will load, then do pretty much nothing. From advanced view, you can't even add project or project manager. It just sits there.

BOINC 7.0.x seems to run just fine on my old Athlon 64 x 2 4600+ with a single Geforce GTX 550 Ti (Fermi) and 4 GB of RAM. It starts automatically on boot up, and runs to it's heart's content. On my new box, I have to manually start BOINC, regardless of version. Version 7 just hangs... It's odd...
