I was using a rater old version of the manager and updated this to the latest version.

After the start of boinc i saw it suddenly have other workunits id 5861115 and 5979062

The ones who it was doing where 5926363 and 5927384 disappeared from the list but they where lots more advanced then these.
On the disk i don\'t see those work units anymore as well where did they go ?!?

How is this possible and why does this happen.

Is it possible to get those units back into the work list
The other amazing thing is the difference in reported benchmark:

Measured floating point speed 2626.96 million ops/sec
Measured integer speed 7683.54 million ops/sec

And the one now :
Measured floating point speed 1859.19 million ops/sec
Measured integer speed 3353.75 million ops/sec

Hi,

The most common reason is that the update was installed in a different place to the original. Boinc (until recently) didn\'t track where it was being installed, so it\'s easy to \'mislay\' the original installation. If my guess is right, and you can find the original installation, then uninstall the new one, and install it over the original.

I'm a volunteer and my views are my own.
