The one result I see on Richard's WIN98 host does not show this strange effect, I'll try to do some test as well, I've got a Windows ME host (should be similar).

The one that's visible shows two full restarts. I can account for one of them (power supply failure), but not two.
The one that's running at the moment also shows a full restart at 2008-03-02 21:23:22.4099 in the slot directory - notice any similarity to my last post? All I did was a 'task suspend' and 'task resume' from BV.
This is in the log:

Notice how Einstein spent 29.5 hours before doing a task switch (I've been away for the weekend), and then did a spontaneous restart three minutes after I paused/resumed it. The task is only showing 9.25 hours CPU / 8.3% progress as I type - that's about in balance, a WU takes something over 4 days on that machine.

Is anyone still working on this problem?

If this doesn't get fixed

If this doesn't get fixed soon, I'm out of here. There are lots of other projects running smoothly.
RE: If this doesn't get

It is a BOINC problem, not an application problem. A temporary fix is in BOINC 5.10.45, the fix works for some and not for others.
It'll be fixed in BOINC 6, but there is no ETA on when this version will be released.
