A computer that has existing results can not be deleted. Only computers that have never been assigned a work unit can be deleted.

A computer that has existing results can not be deleted.

I lost the hardisk on one machine. Reset it up with diff O/S. Cannot merge and cannot delete coz it recieved W/U which have been lost on duff disk. It never got chance to return results. Must be an issue here

If you can't live with it you can make another acount if not just leave it maybe in the future they might make something to merge computers :)
