Today I upgraded to Boinc 4.14 because of an severe error in Einstein@Home with Boinc 4.13. Now my CPDN aborted on a Windows NT machine.
My Win 2K machine is still working.
Has anyone seen a similiar behavior ?

I've not tried 4.14, but people have reported occasional problems in upgrading to previous versions. The advice must remain to backup the entire BOINC folder before any upgrade. Bit late now for you :(

Apparently, YES!

You may want to read these three threads:

and the E@H reference.

Hello all,
there is now a Boinc 4.15 version fixing this problem (on the Einstein@Home page)
