1) Questions and Answers : Windows : daily quota exceeded (Message 1477) Posted 22 Aug 2004 by old_user451 Post: @Carl No problem. I just figured that Beta testing would want to know about the problem and maybe wonder why this would happen. The answer 'detach and find another project' suprised me especially since this is, for me, a normal computer. Maybe even the best 'test computer' since it has only windows and boinc on there (it acts as a server)! So in the back of my mind I am wondering why this computer wouldn't like this huge fortran model and why a smaller more busy computer would. But it's not a problem. I will be happy to use the computer for another project.

However when I look at the results I see that other computers also crashed on these models, so I presume it's not only my computer. Besides that I think an AMD64-512mb should be able to handle the models. I was hoping to resolve the issue, but the advice seems to be to leave this project and start another Boinc project (wich I did). regards, Ronald
3) Questions and Answers : Windows : daily quota exceeded (Message 1454) Posted 22 Aug 2004 by old_user451 Post: Hi, My one computer has a problem for two days where all the models it downloads are ended with an error. It downloads a model and decides it cannot calculate the model. After four models the server does not give any new models to the computer. Is this a problem in the model ? If so than the \'daily quota\' should be higher because the computer is now dorment all day. When checking the results it seems that more computers have come up with the same problem. gr. Ronald
