New Rig Not Happy Crunching All The Time

I have a new rig, self built, but not by me. It runs Windows 7 and has 4GB memory so it's reasonably quick. I downloaded BOINC and got it crunching away and the settings are EXACTLY as they were on the old rig which crunched, non-stop, for over four years.

However, despite having it set on Run Always and Network Activity Always Available the crunching keeps stopping. In Messages it states " Windows has suspended computation, user's request" which is not the case. There is no obvious pattern to the stops and as soon as I click on BOINC it starts crunching again.

Anyone come across a similar problem?

And, any ideas what to do about it

Sounds like the comp may be going into hibernate. Have you gone into control panel then power options?

See if the put computer to sleep option is toggled.

Also have you rechecked the bionic settings? Such as clicking activity then set to run always?

Thanks for that. I've changed the setting so that it does not go to sleep.

Hope that does the trick. I'll see in the morning.
