Is there any way to restart crashed WU\'s? I think the problem I was having was due to use of the graphicdisplay and have quit using it after 3 crashes @ the 20% mark.

You can only restart from a backup made prior to the crash.

Your 3rd model, even though it crashed, did so after the end of phase 1, which, as you can see by the graphs on the model page, uploaded successfully. (Click on the P1s at the bottom of the page.)
So the extra data contained in this phase 1 upload will be valuable to the researchers for use in the start of the coupled ocean model.

There was a bad batch of data sets issued in December/January which failed after phase 1, so it wasn\'t your fault.

Upgrading to the latest graphics card drivers may solve the display problems.
But Suspend and Exit BOINC, then backup the BOINC folder first.

I don\'t feel it\'s anything to do with my graphics drivers as I am using a very new 256 meg pci-e card and accordingto the Sapphire website I do have the newest drivers.

At any rate, listening to all who have had crashed models that seem to be vid card related, and due to the fact that it slows calculation down, I prefer not to use the graphic representation at all. Better safe than sorry. ;)

Maybe I am overlooking things, but is Crunch3R helpful in speeding up the process? Or, are there quality drawbacks to doing such a thing? I\'d think there\'d be some drawbacvks, because if it was overall beneficial, BOINC wouldprobably have incorporated such things into the program.

I am running SETI and Einstein as well, and have already overclocked 5%, a safe amount. looking at the stats for higher overclocking would concern me as the higher voltages could potentially start degrading pn junctions within the cpu. Heat isn\'ta problem with a Thermaltake liquid cooler and \"exotic\" fluid...I am running at abt 38 degrees celsius and 5% o/c.

Crunch3R is, I think, a version of BOINC. (It was mentioned just recently.)
BOINC doesn\'t have anything to do with the science calcs, and so doesn\'t speed things up at this project.
And the server software is compiled with standard BOINC server versions.
So, if there are problems caused by incompatabilies, you are pretty much on your own. Although I don\'t think that it would be happening.
