1) Questions and Answers : Windows : Changeover between runs (Message 16030)

Thanks, but my new run appears to be using 4.13, which again I don\'t understand as I thought that had been superseded.
2) Questions and Answers : Windows : Changeover between runs (Message 15988)

Post:
I recently completed my first run-this uploaded fine but before it did so the next run downloaded and started processing.

That\'s fine as I was happy to continue assisting the project-however if I had wanted to stop there what should I have done? If I had detached after the first run had uploaded presumably this would have caused the project a problem as the new run would be cancelled? Does the project compensate for this by later downloading the same run to another user?

Thanks

3) Questions and Answers : Windows : Disk space/memory allocation (Message 15707)
Posted 5 Sep 2005 by old_user48426
Post:
In my preferences the disk space allocation is set to a maximum of 50% and that of memory to 75%.

If I increase these will it speed up the time my machine takes to complete each run and/or cause any problems?

Thanks

Thanks for the replies-I have upgraded and a new run had begun.

My first run was completed 5 days ago and uploaded. I understood the system would automatically start a new run but nothing hads happened except:

etc etc etc, on a daily basis

So what now?-it would be really helpful for the less computer literate amongst us if there was a phone number to call for help, rather than having to trawl through endless inpenetrable technobabble in search of an answer.
