I was running the sulpher model and it has recently gone to 100% after approx 400 hrs .It was if I remember correctly only on phase 1 of 5 the last time that I looked it still had approx 1600 hrs to run to completion. Any help in this much apreciated.
ANNOY and frustrate SpecSavers staff by wandering up to their counter, squinting your eyes whilst looking up at the price board, and when they ask if they can help you, saying "Big Mac Meal, please."

There\'s a bug somewhere in the BOINC software, that sets the percentage to 100 when a model crashes. Which is what yours has done.

It\'s odd that it crashed just before the end of pahse 1, instead of just after.
Two possibilities:
1) trickle 24 has been uploaded successfully, along with the 8Meg data file, and this just hasn\'t been displayed yet.
2) something went wrong during the post phase processing, which involves a lot of hd activity, as files are zipped.

There was a bad batch of sulphur data sets issued, I think in December, which will definitely crash at the start of phase two, and yours may have been one of these.

You should get a new model soon.
