Getting Restarted with a Project

(moderation:
Schools back in session. I only processed one data set all summer because I was home and I only have access to dial-up there. I finished a data set Saturday and it was uploaded today, I think. Before I could intervene the BOINC Manager disconnected from the server and I could not request more work. When I tried to request more work manually I was told to go to file/select computer and select a host name. I can't find any of the original registration names and numbers that I started with back in September/October of 2005. How does one get reconnected back onto Einstein@Home? I am a high school teacher trying to keep involved with this wonderful project. I am a member of AAPT and did recieve a special number via email last year (but I can't find that number now). Should I request a new number again? Thanks to any one for your help.

Steve,
Not sure I understand the above - but, your "Results for computer" shows that you have a WU "In Progress". So, you may be OK. If not, post a copy your "Messages" here (exit/restart BOINC first).

EDIT: With regard to your registration info, that should not be a problem. Obviously, your computer can sign in to your account (since you were able to post a message). Just go to "Your account" on the E@H home page and "Change" (enter) a password. After that, you won't need the original registration info anymore. If you ever need to sign in again, you will only need your e-mail address and password.

Steve,
Looks like your most recent results are failing with client errors. Error codes like you are getting usually indicate one of the these possible problems: 1/ an "out of date" graphics card driver (see this thread); 2/ you need to update your version of DirectX; or, 3/ your computer may be having memory probems (check with memtest). If the above doesn't help, post back here and describe in a little more detail what happened when you first started to have problems.
