It looks like all your recent (viewable) results have terminated early with "Client error Computing" messages. This makes me wonder if you are also having a problem with screensaver graphics. There is a graphics bug related to running Einstein 4.79 with BOINC 4.45 and "Client error Computing" messages and nonfunctional graphics are the major symptoms. As to the pre-empt message, it appears that your daily quota of work-units is 1. If that unit terminated early because of a "Client error Computing" problem then Einstein will have nothing to do until it can get another unit the next day. Therefore, Einstein is pre-empted. You would also get the same message for Einstein if another project (e.g. SETI) is running. Now, back to the "Client error Computing" problem: If you think the graphics bug might be the cause, check out the Einstein@Home Beta Test under More Information on the E@H home page.
