No new work

(moderation:
I recently upgraded to Win 7 and all seemed OK. I went out of town for a week leaving my system running. I am doing seti@home and e@h, but now only s@h is running. When I try to get data for e@h, I get the following:
12/5/2009 10:29:03 AM Einstein@Home update requested by user
12/5/2009 10:29:08 AM Einstein@Home Sending scheduler request: Requested by user.
12/5/2009 10:29:08 AM Einstein@Home Not reporting or requesting tasks
12/5/2009 10:29:13 AM Einstein@Home Scheduler request completed
Per a note in one of the posts, I uninstalled KB976749, but nothing changed.
Any ideas?

It may well be perfectly normal.
Your list of tasks for that computer shows quite a large number of E@H tasks completed since Nov 27. It looks like your machine may have been crunching E@H almost exclusively during that time. Perhaps Seti was unable to supply work and you have built up a debt to Seti. It depends on what your resource shares for the two projects are.
If Seti does have a debt owed to it, BOINC may well have decided to give E@H a rest for a while until the debt is repaid. What are your resource shares for the two projects?
Cheers,
Gary.

Hi!
Sites like BOINCSTATS.COM can be nice for questions like this. Even tho neither RAC nor absolute credit granted can be expected to reflect 100% the resource share you chose for projects, changes in the relative shares of credit earned by each project can be observed and anyway, E@H and SETI@Home are traditionally in the same league when it comes to RAC.
So here is the statistics page for your account, I guess. It shows (scroll down to the pie-slice diagrams) that lately, the share of credit earned by E@H has risen compared to that of S@H for your hosts. If you haven't changed anything like the resource share or the PCs attached to each project, that means that Gary's theory about a potential debt owed to S@H seems to hit the nail on the head.
