Every time I boot up I get the registration form, which was incompletely loaded. Can I uninstall the WCgrid, and get rid of the idiotic opening screen which is imbecilic in the extreme, remembers nothing and is obviously surplus to requirements!!
How do I get rid of it? I am running Boinc. Will that stand on its own without the WC grid? I believe that there is a conflict with my MFC scanner/printer, because since loading the grid/boinc, I am unable to scan documents without disconnecting the power from the printer/scanner. A pain. Also noted is that booting up now takes about 4-5 min, previously it was just over a minute. Very slow in filling in the various icons. The Timer on the clock must be working on Mars (or remoter planet) minutes, because frequently the remaining time is more than double, around three times Earth time. I've seen the adjustment info, but after nearly three weeks, the timing remains about the same. Now it it appears to interfering with Skype loading. I've tried rebooting 5 timesa today after the problem noted, but skype is the last to load, 4 min in. I am running a 3.2 ghz intel processor with 2g RAM. I would like to continue on the project, but not at any cost. My brother was one of the early victims of the scourge. |

Yes, don't run BOINC and UD agents at the same time. Uninstall the WCG UD agent and just use BOINC.
Let us know if your problems continue. |

heh snoekie,
----------------------------------------heel relaas en zo'n kort antwoord. Dacht dat er van de week iemand over een printer te melden had. De HP jongens lieten die klant de DEP uitschakelen. Beter is een uitzonderings regel te definieren. Welke OS.... per ongeluk Vista?

Sekerob,
No, not vista or HP, XP and brother. My Afrikaans is not up to the Dutch, besides being 40 odd years since used properly. Timing, at 11.02 there was just over 8 minutes to completion. Completion happened at 11.26, plus a few seconds. No not Mars Time, something further out!! ![]() |

Now it is not doing anything.
It was waorking last night and after a boot up (upgrade on some software) it was on strike and boinc says that it needs to connect to wcg, but does not appear to be able to connect. |

Boinc can still say it wants to connect but also keep on running the WUs in the queue. Under tasks on the Boinc Manager does it still show there is a task running?

That will allow us to analyse what's going on. ttyl

Hiya scribe.
Nothing is being done and I have a 'target' on the boinc icon Sekerob, there are no messages and after 6 hours online no connection has been made. Last night I had 2 tasks to do one with 8 hrs to go and the other 9 hours. All gone, last night. I finally downloaded wcg agent and it too just sits there with the message 'Agent paused, see www.wcgrid.org/cause.html' I had allocated 10gb storage and the manager confirms this, but the wcg screen shows only 0.98 gb and stubbornly refuses to be changed to the greater figure. HELP, pretty please. The loading of the opening screen on booting up is a tad bit faster. |

look in activity menu of BOINC to see if network is always on, then go to projects tab and hit 'Update' button in left margin. After, look in message tab and repost.
