Hi, I'm new, in Boinc and Einstein near a moonth ago....
In contrast of my other projects,I can´t obtained any result in the Einsten computation. In statistics, i remain as o zero contributor, without any credit, and my computation in Einstein, remain in permanent error...

The only result you did so far ended with:
5.10.18
aborted by user

So you aborted it... how did you do that?
Any results you abort will not claim or get credit.
RE: ... and my computation

Actually there is no evidence of any computation errors in the result that you aborted.
You joined the project on July 20 and received one result to crunch on. You aborted that result on August 10 just after it exceeded the deadline. It looks like it exceeded the deadline on August 9 because a replacement result was issued to a third computer on that day.
From the credit claim your computer made, your result must have been in excess of 90% completed and probably close to 95% completed and you should have just let it complete rather than aborting it. It probably had less than 2 hours to go to completion.
You had that result about 21 days when you aborted it. It would have accumulated around 30 hours of crunching time at the point you aborted it. In other words you had allowed your computer to spend less than 2 hours per day in actual crunching. Because Einstein workunits require a heavy amount of crunching time, you will never be able to successfully complete results within the deadline if you cannot allow your computer to spend more time per day. You should perhaps choose a project with shorter workunits.
