Now I need help.
There is a file 'Uninst.isu' in the BOINC folder. However, when I run this, Windows says it dosen't know how to use it.
So how DO I unstall the old version, so that I can run 4.25?

Start / Programs / BOINC / Remove BOINC <i>or</i> Start / Settings / Control Panel / 'Add or Remove Programs' / BOINC &amp; hit the [Remove] button.

Thanks for that. But I should have known!

I don't know if I knew about the 1st method, which I used, but I DID know the second.
I was thinking BOINC a bit too hard to remember about Windows.

My excuse is stress. I tried to upload some trickles from Friday evening at 2am Saturday, but the 'net was dead.
Mid afternoon, I developed severe lower abdomen pain, and ended up in hospital until Sunday morning.
'net still down until Monday. Then I finally uploaded 3 days of trickles, and 5 zips.
And got a 'no work' message. Then, after a long, slow, download, the uninstall problem.
After I got 4.25 working, (ugly box on the left!), the message from the server changed to Project down.
Finally got a new model on Tuesday morning.
And found a problem with 4.25. See my other post<a href="http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/forum_thread.php?id=2206"> here.</a>

Nearly St Patricks day, which is the reminder to plant Sweet peas down this part of the world.
Maybe some gardening will help.
