Ghost Machine? Missing Machine?

Things are worse than I thought so perhaps I should have been paying more attention all along. I have a new computer, an i9 named Miracle (because if I ever got it working it would be a miracle) and its name does not show in any results despite churning 24 threads of WCG and uploading them steadily. Not good but looking at my stats I see that a computer named Hactar (Douglas Adams fans will understand) is sending results despite having been retired and boxed up at least a year ago.. So Miracle is invisible and Hactar is a ghost. Additionally I have four other machines crunching in the back room and these are creatively named One, Two, Three and Four. Four has been crunching and uploading steadily also but its results are not shown in statistics.

Is there some, preferably simple, way to correct these glitches?

Re: Ghost Machine? Missing Machine?

There is a known problem when starting a new computer on its journey with WCG whereby the automatics are slow to recognise the addition and may miss it altogether.

Add a post to https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/viewthread_thread,44607 and the back room staff will set things up manually.
