yet i\'m sure there is enough..

I have currently 1.8 GB free on my drive. I am aware that CP takes al least 600. my prefs are set at

Keep enough work on disk to last between 5 and 35 days ( i have tried 99 )

Use no more than 2 GB
Leave at least 0 GB
se no more than 75% of total space
Use no more than 75% of total virtual memory

any ideas?

well it could be the 75% of total space, i.e. if all BOINC projects look like it will put your hard drive so that less than 25% of it's total space remains, it would do it, i.e. if you have 1.8GB free but the drive is 10GB that means it is 82% used hence BOINC will not send you a CPDN run (or any run from SETI/Predictor/etc)

thx for the quick answer, however, it did not work. I have a 20 GB drive (19 GB)
and i have set it to 99% with no luck

and I do get SETI units (when it's up)
