Hi, Jacob.
Good point! Lemme check-it-out...
*Nothing*...
- just bunch of files from old (WinXP) programs, some ini files,
etc... and parts of *Oracle VirtualBox*. Hmm, strange, old ... ok, I
have *DELETED* them, so they will NOT cause any more trouble in the future
when I re-install or upgrade VBox to use.
... Boinc is not even installed on the system drive - for obvious
compatibility reasons :-)
I keep the program and data on drive "D:" , where all local
windows users have all access-rights.
but..... it might happen that drive D: has run out of disk
space recently.... one climateprediction WU has failed today.
Now there is 1.5 GB free again.
But I doubt it would influence checkpointing of such *small*
WUs like Asteroids. Maybe the new app of Asteroids is broken (no
checkpointing?) ... can someone confirm it *is* *indeed* trying to
checkpoint to disk, please? Thanx :-)
"*Period Search Application 102.10 (sse2)*" - on x64 Boinc
in x64 Windows (7).
(if You still got some of those WUs in cache on some PC... no new work
available right now)
*Namaste*
Filip
