Vista is too new for anyone to be able to help much with running BOINC and this project on it.
Your problem may be due to a permissions problem with one or more folders.

One thing that has apparently happened with the new OS is that MS removed OpenGL, which is used a lot for the graphics display, so there will be problems with that.

Vista has new security system, named UAC (Uses Access Control). Your side of the problem is that UAC under user account does not allow apllications, run without admin rights, to create new files, delete old, modify existing in directories, named c:\\program files and deeper, c:\\windows and deeper. The only place on your disk C, where you and all the programs can do that is your user directory c:\\users\\your_user_account_name.

The way to solve the problem is to install CPDN on disk D (anywhere you want). On Disk D you and all the programs have access to the file system, even using restricted rights.

PS: I do so and more than one month do NOT have any problems with vista.
