Which one? the one created in March?

They are all too soon to delete

Wait a month...
Once no results are returned
then you can delete it.


Or Merge them....

Your problem is the same as alot of us...the deleter has not run in awhile to clean up old forgotten units. You have the following unit stil lwaiting for something to happen on that account:

I guess TECHNICALLY the deleter ran last week, it just missed ALOT of units.
AFTER the program is run to clean these up your computer will automatically be deleted, not before. ALOT of us have the same problems.
Check out my list of computers and check out the last one on the list, it is waiting to be deleted too.
The people at Berkeley have to program a script to go in and find each of the problem units and delete them, they are busy doing other things right now, they say in the future they will get back to this issue.

This wu was generated 26.03.2005, and wasn't validated before today due to errors/past deadline. The db_purger will of course not remove wu that isn't finished yet, but now it's at last finished it should be purged in 7 days.

BTW, computers will not automatically be deleted, this must be done manually after all results removed. ;)

I have the same issue, there is a computer on my list that needs to go bye bye.
once all the results are gone from the listed PC how do you remove it? without removeing the workunits it did under your name.

The workunits stay in Boinc, the user can move on. That is a change from Classic where if you left a Team your units went with you, in Boinc you take your total number of units with you but your old Team keeps the number of units you crunched while a part of it. Teams in Classic were moving 1000 places or more because people were joining and dropping just to watch them move.
