1) Message boards : Number crunching : RAC too low? (Message 31390) Posted 15 Nov 2007 by SmilingMoon Post: Les Bayliss: Thanks for your helpful advice. I usually don\'t have sufficient time to delve deeper into the details of the projects I\'m participating so when I run into a serious problem (seldom enough though) I totally depend on help from the community. Now that worked perfectly again and with your information I will be capable of detecting possible causes for problems in the future better without bothering the real experts. MikeMarsUK: I\'ve aborted the strange model and will check over the next few days, what happens to my overall rac. Incidentally your idea about a possible iceworld could be true, since the remainig time for the project actually went up 4 hours compared to yesterday. Conan: Thanks for your reply either, its always nice to notice when somebody is interested in someone else\'s trouble.
2) Message boards : Number crunching : RAC too low? (Message 31378) Posted 15 Nov 2007 by SmilingMoon Post: First I want to say thank you for your helpful answers! Indeed I had edited my preferences concerning the visibility of my computers before but didn\'t know about the delay for the new settings to become effective. mo.v: No, I\'m not using the screensaver. MikeMarsUK: Yes both models are showing as \"running\". I have no reason to believe, there is anything wrong with my hardware, even though I seriously consider running your mentioned Prime95s torture test, just to be sure. To me it seems to be more likely, that hadsm3fub_0574_005897557_9 has gone astray. I wonder if it makes sense to continue crunching that particular model? Following your statement that the last recorded trickle was in September (where did you get that information btw?) maybe i should abort it?
3) Message boards : Number crunching : RAC too low? (Message 31365) Posted 14 Nov 2007 by SmilingMoon Post: Hi to all experts out there! I have two identical machines runnig cpdn, but today i realized that computer_id 385269 gets just approx. half the credit compared to computer_id 565448. I know for sure, there must be something wrong (2 months ago, when a last checked, both machines gave roughly the same amount of credit per dey) but i don\'t want to abort wu\'s unnecssearily. I wonder if someone could check this and give me an idea if there is reason for concern!? Any help mightily appreciated, SmilingMoon PS: It seems my Computers are hidden, what can i do show them?

5) Questions and Answers : Windows : Moving install-directory (Message 28098) Posted 25 Apr 2007 by SmilingMoon Post: hi everybody, i\'m trying to move my boinc installation from drive c: to drive d: (and continuing the current project afterwards) but that ain\'t working so easily. there has to be some trick involved. simply reinstalling boinc with a new path on d: and subsequently copying the project files into the new directory is not sufficient. any help would be appreciated. regards pf
