I got win7 32bit OS and installed the software client and all it does is sit there and look stupid. It can't connect to internet or server like is suppose to. It is a trusted client in my firewall to connect to the net and the ports are open in the firewall and router , also I am using one of my static ip addresses on the computer. Even when I disable the firewalls it still can't connect??? So what is going on here. It works on my 64bit win7 pc that is my game server and my website but that is in my DMZ area and when I test out my weblinks on this pc i got to disable all of my firewalls to connect from any other pc for testing it still don't work. HELP;
AMD830  |

HELP; AMD830 I am assuming you installed Boinc and then attached to WCG as a Project? If os then it is probably your preferences, if not then is it that you can't even go on the internet with the pc? It is kind of confusing to me reading your problems.   |
