1) Questions and Answers : Windows : Win98 & Win ME Support for CPDN/BOINC (Message 11752) Posted 11 Apr 2005 by old_user68394 Post: > > And why do you give up support? > > Does seti also crash under win98 or is it just cpdn? > > It's issues with the CPDN Fortran model under Win98 & ME; we just don't > have the resources (people-time & test machines) to explore & fix the > problem. Old Win versions (98/ME/NT4) were 3.7% of completed classic CPDN > runs, so it's a lot of effort for little good results; especially now that we > have to develop and support on Linux & Mac as well. > Dear CPDN Users and Staff, After spending approx 2 hrs reading through the forums and posting my question here http://www.climateprediction.net/board/viewtopic.php?p=25947#25947 I now understand the circumstance behind this problem using the above answer text. It is unfortunate that WIN 98 & ME have these problems as I am WIN ME user but lashing out at CPDN Staff is not the answer. For now I have made the choice to continue with the programs CPDN and ProteinPredictor (using BOINC Ver 4.19) despite these messages as really, they appear to run fine and are not crashing the system. Each to his or her own choice I say. Still like to know what Kernel.32.dll does though..maybe I'll read about that some day.. Thanks for your time, Davina Williamson-Stuart a.k.a. Girloftheshadows.
