4/8/2011 10:30:55 AM World Community Grid Task HFCC_L4_02256550_L4_0001_0 exited with zero status but no 'finished' file
4/8/2011 10:30:55 AM World Community Grid If this happens repeatedly you may need to reset the project.

I get the same msgs on SETI and Rosetta. Also getting high disk usage msgs from Norton 360 security app. My hard drive access light will come on steady and the system will freeze for about a minute. This started yesterday, the client seemed to be running OK since December(new computer). From the msgs I don't seem to be doing any work, just wasting CPU time.

Re: Error messages

My last 4 units of work have all been judged in error. I had a disk error message from windows yesterday. I fear the processing software needs to be reloaded. How do I do that

Re: Error messages

Recroq: A good idea is to verify that your system is in good shape - run diagnostics checking your hard drive and memory - something could be worn out and need replacing.

Re: Error messages

sscase,

This happens often.Try finishing current tasks and then do a project reset on all affected projects.I would also recommend you to create a dedicated partition for BOINC.To do this, create a partition with X GB(depending on number of cores and projects), and then download BOINC again and choose the data directory your new partition.This will gain some small performance improvements because it's much faster to defrag and you can defrag it daily in a few seconds.
This should also ease disk usage.
Btw, Norton is slow and somewhat ineffective.Use avast which is free and way better.I wouldn't be surprised if it was Norton causing the high disk usage and lockups.

Norton - Virus Detected!!!
What would you like to do?Remove now or later?

Run a disk check:
From Windows Explorer, Right click on the disk drive, click Properties, click the Tools tab. Under Error-Checking click Check Now, tick both boxes and click OK. When Windows prompts you with the question, select to schedule a scan on boot up. Close any open boxes, save your work and reboot your system. Allow the scan to run to completion.

Re: Error messages

Thank you for all your responses. As suggested the problem is hardware. My five month old hard drive is dying. When I get the replacement drive I will have to reload from back up or completely start over. Either way I will be down for a couple of weeks at least.
