Although you've probably installed BOINC, you haven't actually attached your pc to the project.
After installing BOINC you have to use the Attach to Project option. Enter your email and password when asked. After that work will be downloaded to your pc.

Here's a link to the BOINC FAQ explaining how to attach to a project.
