(moderation:
I found a number of my Rosseta units having client errors So I checked here and found errors as well I backed my core usage down and I am not overclocking . now it runs 2 rossettas instead of 3 . any other ideas ?
error work units

I found this while searching for your "too many exits" errors:
"The main lag is when the
workunit completes, and the BOINC client spends a long time deleting
the workunit's temporary files. While it's deleting that, it's not
responding to heartbeats of *other* workunits currently running, so
they will think the client is gone and will quit after 30 seconds.
When the client finishes deleting stuff, it will notice the
applications quit, and restart them. Up to a limit...
A project that has short workunits, where each unzips a thousand
files, may cause ERR_TOO_MANY_EXITS errors on tasks from *other*
projects."
To me that means suspend all projects except Einstein and see if the errors stop, if so then resume one project at a time until you find the project causing the problems with Einstein. At that point you have to chose to run it or Einstein as Einstein doesn't seem compatible with it.
As far as your Rosetta problems it's best to use their own forums for any questions or problems.
my guess its really a Rosetta

my guess its really a Rosetta issue ; one system is nvidia gpu the other AMD , I backed the CPU down to run only 2 rossettas instead of 3 + 3 einstein on the AMD system . I just found it odd both computers started erroring about the same time . the other runs GPUGRID + 4 rossettas . I will be scanning for malware -- also I try to max out my GPU but pci speed is not high - But I shoot for 80 % gpu

I never overclock anything as I am in this for the long run, not a short sprint. I also don't really have the cash flow to be buying new hardware that gets overheated and becomes useless for crunching before its time. Some of my gpu's run 2 units at a time here at Einstein, but most only run 1 unit at a time. I run a different project on my cpu cores than I do on my gpu's.
If you don't already have it you might want to get a copy of "gpu-z" as it can tell you what temps your gpu is running at. Also "open-hardware-monitor.exe" is another free program I use as it tells me the temps of both my cpu cores and my harddrives, although people say "cpu-z" will do the same thing for the cpu temps.
Hi Robby1959, there are

Hi Robby1959,
there are problems in all your active projects.
Maybe you should completely uninstall the Boincmanager once and then play it the older stable version again (7.2.42).
Download BOINC client software

Make sure the Boinc Data directory is excluded from your anti-virus scans, it could be that files are locked so the apps can't start correctly.
