I have native atlas working fine on Linux. Pair of 8cpu each, total of 16 valid results so far

On two windows systems, both with VT-X enabled cannot get any data

VirtualBox version: 6.0.18 no atlas available system has 20 possible threads, win10. One "CMS" simulation valid , 16 CMS failed.

VirtualBox version: 6.1.4 no atlas work available system has 24 threads, win8.1

I have a similar situation. I can't get atlas(and theory) tasks, though there seems to be unsent works.
CMS and Sixtrack tasks are available.
I checked Yeti's checklist and reset the project once.
Does anyone know the reason or solution?

Windows10 (64bit), BOINC 7.14.2, VirtualBox 6.0.18, 8 threads, 16GB memory

You may try if a preference change solves the problem:
https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/prefs.php?subset=project&cols=1
"Run native if available?" should be set to "no" for Windows computers.

Linux and Windows computers may need to be attached to different venues:
"Linux"-venue: Run native if available?=yes
"Windows"-venue: Run native if available?=no

dfitto, but had to change venue as native was needed for a Linux system

This needs to be on a sticky thread along withj VBox 6.x being ok to use

alternately change the webpage instruction from

Run native if available


to

Don't run anything except native code
