34) Questions and Answers : Wish list : BOINC / Project - user defined base priority variable for win (Message 4154) Posted 15 Sep 2004 by Skip Da Shu Post: I would like the ability to set the process priority running windows gui version. For example \"low\" is ok for some machines but on dedicated basket crunchers I\'d like to define that to something higher... like \"below normal\" or \"normal\". It would have to be host level so maybe as an option under the \"settings\" menu or at the host/project level by adding to the right click on a project menu. Thanks, Skip Win XP and 2K

Can ya'll deleted it and it's associated errored work units?

Probably on the board before the project opened up. It definitly eliminates my oldest machine a 200mhz thinkpad with 64Mb and a 3Gb drive. Thanks for the reminder. I've been blanketly adding this project on the other boxes as I went to 4.05 and probably would've done the same on the antique. Skip

If I ok, or suspend/unsuspend it starts back up and gets the error in under 3 seconds.... Looking for other ideas.

What's it take to reset this? What are the timing rules... 24 hours from when? Skip

CPU time. Had same problem and it APPEARS to have been the Win XP Pro SP2 Firewall. The other boxes using NIS firewall don't have the problem. Trying to get CPDN W/Us to confirm but SETI and LHC are working fine now.

After reading the cross post (Carl in Germany) I checked and found out one thing different on this machine... it's the only one using the SP2 firewall the other two are using Norton Internet Security. I'll change that and see what happens over the next 24hrs.
42) Questions and Answers : Windows : Visual Fortran run-time error (Message 2710) Posted 2 Sep 2004 by Skip Da Shu Post: Ditto on my XP Pro, SP2, AMD XP3200+ @2.23Ghz w/ 1G ram. I have screen prints and the stdtxt, stderr files if someone wants to provide an email address to send them to. Interesting thing is I'm running the same account/combo of BOINC 4.05 w/ CPDN, SETI & PREDICTOR on 5 other machines and the combo of BOINC 4.05 w/ SETI only on 4 more machines and am only haveing problems with this one. These vary from a Dell P2 @ 400Mhz to P4s @ 2.8Ghz machines. Most running XP Pro SP1 but some with NT Server and 1 Win 2K SP4 and 2 with XP Pro SP2. The other two with XP Pro SP2 are AMD XP24s. The prior day it crapped out a couple HADSM runs early and ask if I wanted to send a report to MS (I declined the generous offer) but I didn't capture any info then due to time constraints. Skip
