1) Questions and Answers : Windows : Ctrl+key just stops screensaver (Message 30085)

The text to the left of the planet model says I can press ctrl + a key to change the view. But as soon as I hit ctrl (or both together) the screensaver quits.

Yes, I set disk usage preferences fairly low a long time ago, probably because I assumed it would clog up C: by default. Good to see it doesn\'t :)

How much space does climateprediction need? It doesn\'t seem to say.

My boinc folder is already on a different drive I use for applications. That has 4GB of free space -- surely this is enough?

Ok, now it says:

17/08/2007 20:58:34|climateprediction.net|Message from server: No work sent
17/08/2007 20:58:34|climateprediction.net|Message from server: (there was work but you don\'t have enough disk space allocated)
17/08/2007 20:58:34|climateprediction.net|Message from server: Not enough disk space (only 462.2 MB free for BOINC). Review preferences for maximum disk space used.

17/08/2007 20:58:34|climateprediction.net|Reason: requested by project


My C: drive is mostly full, so I expect that\'s why -- how do I tell BOINC to use another drive for data? I have plenty of space on other partitions.

What is listed under \"Status\" in it he Tasks tab?
Anything relevant in the Messages?


The Tasks tab is completely empty, even though I\'m attached to two projects.

In the messages there\'s this:

17/08/2007 20:43:53|climateprediction.net|You used the wrong URL for this project
17/08/2007 20:43:53|climateprediction.net|The correct URL is http://climateprediction.net/
17/08/2007 20:43:53|climateprediction.net|Using the wrong URL can cause problems in some cases.
17/08/2007 20:43:53|climateprediction.net|When convenient, detach this project, then reattach to http://climateprediction.net/


What was the wrong URL I was using, I wonder?
I\'ve updated it and things seem to be downloading now.

For some time now, BOINC doesn\'t seem to be doing any work.
I\'ve updated BOINC, but when the screensaver runs, I see only an outline planet earth and the work progress bar has been at 8.something percent for months.

I don\'t understand what\'s going on -- what do I need to do?
