I recently had to reinstall WIN XP and as a result redo BOINC from scratch(new account and so on), but now it refuses to show my credit for my still ongoing CLASSIC account.


Will it miracuously appear when another snapshot is taken, or when the validator finally gives me some credit for my BOINC work done so far.

Any info would be greatly appreciated..

Since you set up a new account, no. The new boinc account and the old classic account aren't linked.

Don't understand, why you had to create a new account. It has nothing to do with reinstlling your system.

Hi
The total of classic work units (old Seti@home)chown in my account on Seti Boinc and my classic seti account differ.
I migrated my account from old seti to Boinc Seti. Why is there a diffence ?

because the Classic credits is a static snapshot ... my Classic account has about 61,000 but BOINC only has 50,000 something ...

I have crunched with seti Classic since 2001 and though I have set up a BOINC account with exactly the old user address, it didn't merge... why does this happen?
