Hi, Yesterday i became active member, i activated muy account and downloaded program, i downloaded my first work unit and my computer started to process it. I went to sleep. When i woke up my computer was turned off (i guess processing was complete). I started my comp again. And since then i cant start Boinc program. I even tried to reinstall it and it simply wont start (i dont even get any error message).
How can i fix this problem, and what happended to my work unit which was complete?
Pls answer.

Your results page showes 1 WUWU and that it is still in process, so it looks like the WUWU was lost if it is not on your computer.....

Yes but only problem is that i cannot start program.... When i start it tray icon appears for a sec and simply dissapears , like i didnt pressed it.
I was wondering is there any incompatibillity with Windows XP, or some patch or add-on that can help me start it again, or fix it.

Do you have a firewall on your PC? If you have, the firewall need to give access to Boinc in order to run.
