Just installed 4.06 on my ME machine and am having no problems so far. It allowed me to send processed units with no lockups. Also, I was brave enough to do a manual update from the projects tab (certain death in 4.05) with smooth results. Did the same on the 98 machine. So far both have been running smooth. I think we have a winner!! Thanks. |

Installed 4.05 when it became available. Seems to be working fine on Solaris and XP but my Win2k machine is consistently bluescreening now. It ran fine with the previous version. It might be just me but it seemed relevant to this thread even though it's 2k and the problems are supposed to only be in 95/Me. |

I removed the logo from my preferences now BOINC is running without a problem with 4.05 and 4.06 under WinXP Prof. SP2. BTW: I did not change the logo and it worked fine with BOINC/Seti 3.x.

I am running 4.06 on 2 win98 machines now. Seems to be working well. With 4.05 I could not get anywhere without rebooting all the time. No problems with Win XP running 4.05. |

Running now V4.06 on WinMe. For the moment no problems. Clicked on update now with some fear,...but no problem... Will install on 3 Win98 machines and one dual procecoor NT4 6a machine keep you informed of any problems. Greetings from Belgium ;-)) |

> Hi All, > Is the upgrade to 4.06 for everyone or just those using 98,98SE. Just those using Win98/ME. You might like to try it if you're game, & let us know how it goes on a non 98/ME system; but at this stage i'd suggest sticking with V4.05. :-) Grant Darwin NT. |

Where might one put their hands on a copy of 4.06. I have an older 400mhz Compaq Notebook and just made a clean install of WIN98SE on it. Would be more than happy to put 4.06 on it and give it a go. |

I downloaded version 4.06 8 hours ago and installed it on Windows XP. It has been running without any problems at all. I have updated, downloaded and uploaded. Just wanted to inform you all of that. |

Just a comment from here, running win98se. Just installed the 4.06 and got lucky with 2 "golden" WU's that finished within 3 minutes each. All worked perfectly, upload, download, update and starting computation of the new WU's As said earlier, seems as if we have a winner here. VERY WELL DONE Berkely, many well deserved credits from here, and keep up the good work. A very happy cruncher :) :) :) |

I downloaded 4.06 too and everything seems to work well. Very good work, Rom- that was a really quick solution to the Win98 issue. |

I downloaded 4.06 too. Works very well! Great work! But it seems a bit slow. Is it a debug version? Therefore the symbol files? Would be interesting, whether the optimized version behaved same! Sometimes a shift in timings changes behaviour significantly. Just in case of weak multitasking systems like W98. Bernhard |

Running BOINC 4.06 on a Win98SE for a few hours now and no problems yet.

As posted before I had problems with Boinc CC 4.05 on my Win95 and WinMe machines. I just installed version 4.06 on both PC's. Both started a CPU benchmark, resumed computation using the setiathome4.03 client and downloaded several WU's. I still have to wait until they finish a WU, but for now it looks OK. |

Hi, I am getting a problem with 4.06, does not want to install over 4.05 Gettting message" an error occured in the move data process -132" at 71% install THis is on a 2.8 GHz AMD WIN XP home with SP2 Does install without a hitch on one of childrens 2.4 running Win98 (over V 3.2) Any ideas. I am not sure I want to detatch or reinstall as I have a CPDN unit making progress which has not died yet |
