For the past few days all work units run report "computation error". Also when the client requests more work units receive error "Message from server: (reached daily quota of 2 results". Running v6.4.7 and XP Pro. Never any problems until 2 days ago. Nothing has changed on my machine.

You actually have two machines attached to the project and you appear to have problems with both of them.
Your host ID 1831657 has lots of work on board but doesn't seem to be returning it in a timely manner. You have close to 40 tasks in your cache and the oldest 4 have now exceeded the deadline. Unless you start returning results fairly soon, many more tasks will be timing out shortly. If you are not able to crunch the work, you should really reduce your cache size so as not to keep downloading new tasks.
Your other host ID 1828606 has lots of failed work going back to March 1st and no sign of any successful results. If you "drill down" into each taskID, you get the error message showing a corrupt downloaded data file with a bad MD5 checksum. You've been having the problem for much longer than just 2 days :-). Something may have gone wrong with the initial download of one of the large data files on which the tasks depend.
You appear to have recently reset the project as you now have completely different frequency data files for your most recent two tasks (which have not immediately errored out). Hopefully, these two tasks will be able to complete successfully. When you look with the BOINC Manager GUI (advanced), can you see the computation proceeding normally on those two tasks?
Because of all the errors, your daily quota has been reduced to 1 task/core and will only be increased once you start returning successfully completed tasks. With 4 successful results, you will be back to the full quota of 16 tasks/core. If you do have a very large cache setting, you should consider reducing it to something more appropriate so as not to eventually have the same problem as your other host.
Cheers,
Gary.
