1) Message boards : Number crunching : Deleleting project and then adding the project again with new link (Message 56128) Posted 3 May 2017 by Pilgrim57 Post: This was an error. You didn't need to do anything but like me you did. Just managed to re-attach to project as it wouldn't accept my password. My credits have returned but no work. Have you used the same account info when attaching to project again? If the same you should get your credit back in next few days.
2) Message boards : Number crunching : Project has no tasks available (Message 45218) Posted 5 Nov 2012 by Pilgrim57 Post: Its life JIM but not as we know it. Hope things improve for you soon. We are all too dependent on technology these days.
3) Message boards : Number crunching : How do I stop BOINC from requesting GPU tasks? (Message 41816) Posted 17 Mar 2011 by Pilgrim57 Post: Some projects use GPU others don't. AFAIK this is the way BOINC works & you can't stop these requests: 2 x GPU then CPU work get.
4) Message boards : Number crunching : Can't upload for 12 days (Message 41790) Posted 12 Mar 2011 by Pilgrim57 Post: Managed to upload 2 .13 zip files yesterday 11th March but still have 6 waiting to upload - soon to be 7. Sever is supposed to be working & have restarted BOINC but retry button uploads 30kbits then stops. Is it only me or do others have problem. Is server swamped?

6) Questions and Answers : Windows : Can\'t get new work (Message 35425) Posted 2 Nov 2008 by Pilgrim57 Post: Updte - still not sure what was going on but as of this morning I was able to download 2 more tasks. I will try to remeber to back them up every 3 or 4 days.
7) Questions and Answers : Windows : Can\'t get new work (Message 35419) Posted 1 Nov 2008 by Pilgrim57 Post: Hi Mo.v - right the AMD is no longer running BOINC the dual PC is defunct. The Quad is running OK - touch wood - and the HADCM is the one that didn\'t download i.e. a ghost & is not visible in tabs. The other 2 are running & trickling. I wouldn\'t reset until they are finished & without getting new work BUT I don\'t think that is the solution at the moment. I hope that I can get new work. When I started the quad it downloaded 3 units. I would be happy with 3 - 2 to run & 1 as standby so A. I don\'t have to wait to get a new task after 1 finishes & B. if Seti goes down I can run all 3. Surely for a quad I should be able to get 4 tasks? Thanks for yr help
8) Questions and Answers : Windows : Can\'t get new work (Message 35416) Posted 1 Nov 2008 by Pilgrim57 Post: A reset won\'t get rid of the 2 dead tasks, however it might help with getting new work. But given that BOINC was only installed on 14th Oct I find it hard to believe it has developed a major problem so quickly as SETI is working fine.
9) Questions and Answers : Windows : Can\'t get new work (Message 35412) Posted 1 Nov 2008 by Pilgrim57 Post: Thanks for the feed back. I han\'t backed up as theses WU are only taking 10-12 days max, some just a week. I have completed other WUs & PC stable, it is o/ced. Have upped my volts to CPU & RAM just to make sure. In preferences Climate is set to 200% & SETI 100% so I thought that would shift the bias toward climat prediction. When I\'ve reached my daily quota I have got a message which I didn\'t this time! I have 4GB RAM which only 1/2 is shown as in use. Disk usage is set to 10 GB & climate change is using 660MB [SETI 80MB]. AS stated I have 2 WUs that are showing as active but one was lost during a crash on my old PC & the other failed to download on 22nd Oct but shows up as if I had got it & was able to run it. These 2 seem to be stopping me having more that 2 WU to work on i.e. 4 in total. Is that right quad core = 4 active tasks? Will I have to wait for 2012 when the last WU expires before I will get a 4th task? I have set SETI to no new work & see what happens when I run the task down to about 20. Answers greatly appreciated.
10) Questions and Answers : Windows : Can\'t get new work (Message 35406) Posted 31 Oct 2008 by Pilgrim57 Post: Well the 2nd climate change unit crashed also. Yes I\'ve a lot of SETI units. Tried altering pfreference to 10 day & no joy. After 2nd u/s WU was updated I got 2 new task - hawever the 2 that I am unable to finish, no longer on my PC, seem to restrict me t 2 unit when I could be working on 4! Thanks for your help
11) Questions and Answers : Windows : Can\'t get new work (Message 35403) Posted 31 Oct 2008 by Pilgrim57 Post: I have a quad core & run Vista 64bit. On my old PC a WU crashed but it is still showing as active task ID 6963845. On my current PC a WU failed to download properly but is still showing as active Task ID 8144491. Another WU has crashed & 1 is running OK but each time I update to get new work it says \"Requesting 0 seconds of work\". Surely I should be able to get at least 1 more WU?! Is there any way to delete the other 2 WUs so I can get more tasks? Thanks Pilgrim57
