Yet the RAC is dropping like a rock from over 17,000 last night before I deleted the new Nvidia drivers and reinstalled the 19107 drivers. I should have hundreds pending from yesterday and today. Maybe I am seeing things wrong? Official Abuser of Boinc Buttons... And no good credit hound! ID: 954061 ·

Messed everything up. The ones running are the ones from the boinc I had renamed. When one gets turned in it shows connection in my computers veiw. Official Abuser of Boinc Buttons...

Your credits, if that is what you are worried about, don't evaporate. It's all money in the bank, so to speak. A little bit of advice.........OC until you reboot once or twice a day. Then back down. Because you can't make up the reboot time with the little bit of OC difference. Steady but surely makes the RAC. I am serious..........And don't call me Shirley.

It looks to me like you were still recovering from Sundays outage.

Looking at the results of the machine you detached. It looks to me like you were still recovering from Sundays outage. Where are all my pending units from the last 2 days? http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/results.php?hostid=5185924&offset=0&show_names=0&state=2 That doesn't seem strange? I have turned in 100's RAC dropping my pending should have been loading up. It was going down like my RAC. Official Abuser of Boinc Buttons... And no good credit hound! ID: 954084 ·

Still wonder where the day and a half worth of units went to. They all uploaded no problem but no sign of them in my account for that machine. Glad it is fixed or whatever.

The error ones were because I only renamed the boinc in program files and must have forgot the other because when I restarted it created a new boinc folder and I stopped it and deleted it then updated the driver. Messed everything up. The ones running are the ones from the boinc I had renamed. When one gets turned in it shows connection in my computers veiw. When you did this the server probably saw it as a detach/attach and purged all the WUs it had assigned to that computer and assigned them to someone else, while you still had them in your other directory on your end and continued crunching them.

Thank you Wonder Puppy, you seem to be the only one that saw what I saw. Figured I screwed it up, par for the course for me. Official Abuser of Boinc Buttons... And no good credit hound!
