    I was wondering why my messages said "out of data." I read the technical news and I think it means they stopped using the BOINC client and are getting ready to switch to a newer better stronger faster one. Am I correct? Let's go, I need my fix... my machine is sitting in idle... SHUT IT DOWN!?!? *sigh* ... I NEED MY WUs!!!

    :)

    Out of DATA??

      I must not have understood. I checked the client on my G4 and it's still getting wu's. But now, the "TASKS" tab shows no wu's on my PC. My E@H has been getting this strange message for a few days:

      12/21/2010 8:49:51 AM Suspending computation - CPU usage is too high
      12/21/2010 8:50:01 AM Resuming computation
      12/21/2010 8:50:21 AM Suspending computation - CPU usage is too high
      12/21/2010 8:50:31 AM Resuming computation
      12/21/2010 8:51:31 AM Suspending computation - CPU usage is too high
      12/21/2010 8:51:41 AM Resuming computation

      It's never gotten those before. Besides that, with no wu's WHAT is being "resumed"?? So what did I do wrong? I confess, I played with the preferences (mae culpa) but then reset to the web defaults - the ones I always use. Now everything is sad in wu-ville.

      Should I uninstall/reinstall in order to fix this problem?

      thx in advance,

        Go to

        Advanced -> Preferences -> processor usage

        Set "While processor use is less than 0 percent"

        The standard value is 25%, so this could be the problem.

          Since this is one of your pc's that you have already had running you probably had those preferences set right but it is good to check and make sure they are set at "0's"

          (and 100% of the time)

          I did just read what it said your problem is http://einsteinathome.org/task/212415284

          Maybe you should try the uninstall and clean install of the newest version of Boinc and see if that works ......but I see you do have the newest version on there already.

          You already lost plenty of time on that pc so the sooner the better.

            Thanks tolafoph and MAGIC. I set it to 0% and she is running again as usual. PS: Don't remind me of how much time I lost on this machine! It already hurts enough. :( Can I get wu's on my cell phone?? (j/k)

            Thanks again guys.
