1) Questions and Answers : Windows : There was work but you don't have enough disk space allocated (Message 7298) Posted 15 Jan 2005 by old_user29472 Post: I'm astounded. I'm running Boinc on a machine w/ 4G total disk space. Not going to give you a whole gig. So you're losing one contributor, unfortunately. SETI needs nowhere near this kind of space to begin a WU . . . can you not break the tasks down more and make this a little more reasonable for contribuitors? Would that not help the overall progress of the project? Maybe not, but I'm surprised nonetheless. > Climate Prediction needs at least 700MB of disk space to run (if you are > trying to run more than one on a hyperthreaded processor then you will need > double that).
