Frozen work units?
I have a dual core AMD 4400+ machine that is configured to run all the time and use 100% CPU power.

Problem is that every time I check said machine it is running only one of the two work units with one of them frozen and it won't restart unless I restart the BOINC service.

I even reformatted and did a clean install of XP Pro and it's still doing the same thing.

Any ideas how to get this machine to perform?

I'm running the latest version of BOINC 5.10.28 and I even tried to use the WCG version to no avail.

Re: Frozen work units?
Please check the BOINC messages. The reason for the task stopping should be recorded there.

If you don't know what it all means, post the messages here.

Since the PC just rebooted the messages don't indicate anything as I'm assuming they clear themselves out at reboot.

I have looked in there previously and noticed nothing untoward but I will copy and paste whatever it says next freeze up.

Re: Frozen work units?
According to that, you have no problem - both cores are fully utilised.

Except somehow you seem to be trying to run two instances of BOINC. What's that about?

Re: Frozen work units?
When you say "frozen" - what evidence are you basing that on?

Unit stops counting and task manager shows my CPU usage at 50% which is not normal if both cores are processing.
