I just posted a new Window App (0.18) for beta testing. It involves quite some fixes to the BOINC library, including the previous ATI graphics driver fix and a fix to some other problems (mainly general access violations) in conjunction with the graphics.
Please test and report!

Bernd, I have not participated in .03beta testing. Should the .18 beta installation give a seamless transition from 4.79? In preparation, I have already requested Einstein to give me no new work, so I have ~ 6 hrs work left in queue.

It'll probably take 0.5 times longer to crunch a unit again. ;)

Hi Bernd and all other
I installed Version 0.18:
Result: Work stable, Screensaver no errors , with ver 4.79 my screen freeze sometimes; = Pentium P4 ATI Radeon 9200 !
Should the .18 beta installation give a seamless transition from 4.79?
No, it won't. You are actually changing the platform, not only the App version.

Migration to .18 beta smooooth, no hangups or errors so far, though WUs take 10% more time (20600 sec for .18 vs. 18700 sec for 4.79)! :( Athlon XP-M 2600+++ under Win XP Home sp2. No others have completed the new WU results that .18 beta has done for me so far, so validation remains to be seen.

Sorry - that information was included in the instructions for the Mac Beta test, but I forgot to take it over to the Windows one. My fault.
