Due to bugs in tht 6.4 work fetch code, it is very difficult at the moment. It requires actively managing the queue.

These bugs will be fixed in 6.6.

ah don't sweat it man i fixed it, turns out i had a bad overclock going. I got it straightened out.

ps: i've been running set@home for over 8 hours now and i still have no credit, do i have to wait for the whole thing to be finished(159 hours left) for credit to start appearing??

You have to wait for the task to complete, and they you have to wait for your wingmate (the other computer that got the same task) to complete, and then you wait for the validator (this step is usually only a few seconds, but it can be a long time if the validator is off). Sometimes a task is not returned on time, and is sent out to a third (or fourth...) comuter, and you will have to wait for that one.
