This may have solved the problem. I reinstalled it on c:\BOINC It is running. I will see what happens when I reboot. Thanks Bob

Thanks Bob Make sure you make those registry changes in number 5 of this FAQ before you reboot; Vista will error out your WUs every time otherwise. I've made the WaitToKill registry change on all my Vista machines...still every month after Windows update reboots I get a ton of error WUs. Does it need to be increased past 60000? I heard something about BOINC 6.0 being more Vista-compatible? |

oh boy i smell a Redmond rat.... "after each update" How many are there? Are they resetting the "WaitToKill" value, so they once again can boast about their improved shut down speed?
----------------------------------------just a thought  PS, the original instructions over at the "BOINC faq" had a few missing slashes in the registry pathway, so you might want to revisit point 5 which was put directly into our own Vista FAQ. just another thought

----------------------------------------The machine ran into A big standstill after it had run about 60 hours in 1 session. I allready re-installed it, but i'm heving the same error over and over again.. It can't be instability of the machine itself, my older computer is still running after 72 hours  [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at Aug 18, 2007 2:09:10 AM] |

From there we can possibly make a more exact diagnoses. cheers

I reseted my pc and thought it would be alright.. [i wasn't looking @fault messages, because Windows often runs in grinding halt, & works normal after reset.] So it appeard to be that some files where erased, via chckdisk the files where restored from the hdd. It's already up-and-running now.. Sorry for the disturbence!! Rouke p.s the agent version = the last one: 5.8.15 There are also no invalid or error returned results [Edit 3 times, last edit by Former Member at Aug 19, 2007 5:30:03 PM] |
