It shows 2 PC's and no matter what I do they wont merge. I'm running only one PC. This problem could have arisen because I left the project and then came back after several months. I have a similar problem over at CPDN, but my Predictor account merged just fine. Should I worry about it? Peter. Toronto, Canada |

The problem is that different versions of BOINC generate different strings for the OS and the CPU for identification. These strings must match in order for a merge to be possible. However, once a computer has had all of its results removed from the database (this is a normal cleanup step, and does not affect the science) that computer may be deleted. BOINC WIKI |

The older item is carrying all my credits, such as they are, the newer one which I created I guess when I downloaded Boinc again last week, is showing 0 credit. Should I delete the newer one? If so, how? Peter. Toronto, Canada |
