The work and results section does not appear to be updating. I took a snap shot just before 24:00 gmt on the 5th. All the values are the same now at 23:00 on the 6th.

Bob,

Your quota has now been reduced to 3. This is happening because you are returning work units with "Client errors". Every bad WU reduces your quota by one.

The reason is, you have the Einstein 4.79 "graphics bug". The classic symptom of the "graphics bug" is that it ends work units with "Client error" messages exactly like the kind you are getting.

You might check into using the Beta Application (see link under More Information on the E@H home page). The Beta Application fixes the "graphics bug". I would also add that it is very stable. I have been using it for about 3 months with no problems. You should also check to make sure the driver for your grahics card is up to date.

But, a new Einstein science application is supposed to be released soon and if you keep using Einstein 4.79, the new application will be automatically downloaded to you. It will have the "graphics bug" fixes that the Beta app contains and it will also do more intensive science calculations. If you change to the Beta application now, you will need to "change back" when the new application is released. On the other hand, if you decide to stay with Einstein 4.79, you should quit using the screensaver (and "Show graphics" option) until the new application comes out. Otherwise, the "graphics bug" will continue causing your work units to fail with "Client errors".

Stick

Edit: Your quota will go back up to 8 (one at a time) once you start returning some good WU's.
