I currently have 40GB HD distributed in partitions amon 4 and 6GB. The agent program is installed in partition with 2GB of free space. However, the agent is identifying "This device" as a 0.98GB and then I getting only 20% score in Storage Perform item.
How can I fix this misery? Best regards, Fred |

Storage points are explained in http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/viewthread?thread=1505
By default, you authorize the WCG to use up to 1 gigabyte (GB) of storage on your hard drive. Actually, the current Human Proteome Folding Project fits within 50 MB. You can sign in and change your profile to use more, if there is enough space in your partition. The maximum allowed is 10 GB. Because of the difference between 1,000,000,000 bytes and 2**30 bytes (different definitions of gigabyte) a gigabyte authorization is computed as 0.98 gigabytes. Your authorized storage must be in the same partition as your WCG program. You can try moving the WorldCommunityGrid subdirectory from C:\Program Files to another partition as long as you replace the Startup shortcut with one to the new location. I have never done this. But it sounds as though you do not have a partition with 10 GB available. |
