To abinkow:

It looks like your most recent results with Client error Computing messages are only coming from your AMD machine. I suggest you try using the Windows Beta App on it (see link under More Info on E@H home page).

My credit situation grows worse.

My first upgrade, from BOINC 4.19 to 4.25, caused my claimed credit to drop from the 80 point range to the high 50 point range. After some discussion on this board, I resigned myself to claiming less.

Now, I've upgraded from 4.25 to 4.43. I'm still claiming in the same range -- but the average WU is taking an hour longer to process. Instead of 12hr 25min, I'm into 13hr 14min.

Should I just stop upgrading, and go back to 4.19? I have a top-of-the-line notebook, with dual 2.80 processors functioning as if they're 3.2Ghz. I shouldn't be spending 13 hours per WU (which I do two at a time).

Thanks, but the AMD machine

Message 12218 in response to message 12216

Thanks, but the AMD machine has been having a lot of problems that are unrelated to BOINC that probably account for all of the client errors. (It won't boot into anything but Safe Mode just now). I'm working on those, and I expect it to resolve the client errors as well.
