the exact program is:
sulphur_um_4.22_windows_intelx86.exe

it just keeps crashing a la \"this program has encountered an error and needs to close blah\"

the event log gives this message:
Faulting application sulphur_um_4.22_windows_intelx86.exe, version 0.0.0.0, faulting module sulphur_um_4.22_windows_intelx86.exe, version 0.0.0.0, fault address 0x0018c739.

Are you running the graphics with it? If so, don\'t!

I had the same problem repeatedly.
On one of my machines i have Boinc installed as a service and on the other its standard.
On the first one I have tried to reinstall Boinc and reset all files, and nothing seems to help.
On the last one it helped to reinstall Boinc.
I never use the graphics due to the fact that crashes Einstein projects.

Hmmm...I had the problem that climatepredictor WU\'s would crash and nothing else would (Einstein, SETI)....

A few possibilities:

  • If using an antivirus solution, exclude the BOINC folder from \"On access\" and scheduled scanning. Some AV apps do not play nice with the large files that CPDN writes periodically.
  • Exit BOINC if defragging the hard drive.
  • Update your graphics card driver.
  • If you play games on this PC, exit BOINC before you do so.
  • Check out the hardware maintenance tips here and the hardware specific tests and checks here
