Windows Atom Netbook running Windows 7 Starter.
----------------------------------------Boinc won't run. Everytime I boot up I get a msg telling me that "A reboot is required in order for BOINC to run properly...." Note... Running Boinc program and data from E: drive, an SD card that is installed in the Netbook. Any ideas? Thanks! [Edit 1 times, last edit by bcmurray at Feb 18, 2011 10:02:20 PM] |

Hi bcmurray,
I have never heard of this before. Better tell us how you installed it and which installation program you used. Lawrence |

Hi. I used the standard installer for windows downloaded from the World Community Grid website. Followed prompts. Only change I made was I installed the pgm files to E:boinc_pgm and the data to E:boinc_data. Thanks for your help.

Go to both BOINC data and BOINC program directories and delete a file saying "reboot".Should be a txt file.
