It doesn't look like you have a major problem here (i.e. only one unit that I could see). But, if you start getting more Client error Computing messages, it could be a symptom of a BOINC 4.45/Einstein 4.79 incompatibility problem. If and when you get to that point, you should check out the Einstein Windows Beta Application (under More Information on the E@H home page).

Does this mean that I had a faulty data unit or what?
...could be a symptom of a BOINC 4.45/Einstein 4.79 incompatibility problem...
Or also, if it continues, could be a symptom of a computer problem - bad RAM, or CPU overheating due to dust buildup or such. I'd first check the temperature of your CPU to make sure it hasn't risen a lot lately, then try the latest beta app, then run a bunch of system diagnostics. A bad transmission of the WU or a bad WU is what I would guess if it only happens once. If it happens again, software is probably more likely than hardware, but checking CPU temp is always a good idea anyway when a heavy load is kept on the CPU.
so it is probably something related to DrWatson or something where DrWatson tried to get control.
Is there an entry in drwtsn32.log that would match the time when the error occured?
The same error number has been reported in most other projects too and with various BOINC versions now and then so it is most likely not specific for Einstein.
One guy seemed to have it only when he started and then immediately stopped the BOINC graphics. If it happens again, you could try to remember if you did something with that too when the crash occured.
If you get it more often, you might want to watch your temperatures with Motherboard Monitor or so.
Thanks for all your responses guys. As far as I can tell the error occured when the computer was completely working on its own. I don't believe anyone did anything to stop the work in progress. But, I have done that on countless occassions and have not had this problem since. I will monitor the CPU temp more closely. I hope it was a work unit glitch.
