Hi Linda and Welcome :D, from what I can tell you appear to have successfully completed and returned your results. If there were 3, then 2 of them, at this time, seem to have been already assimilated into the master science database and won't show anymore, but add to your 'Recent Average Credit' [RAC] shown left (and on your account page). The remaining one is 'pending' waiting on your 'wingman' to complete, and also shows success.

[Note: I see you have two AMD mobiles listed, one active (which shows the single pending result), and one inactive (not active last 30 days - zero results - successful ones historically all assimilated] ... [So if you see unfinished results somewhere else please let us know!]

I guess you are waiting for more work, which can be touch and go at the moment, If you can stay connected some should trickle through to you... Any questions about this or other issues feel free to ask :D

Jason
[PS.. Some things you MAY OPTIONALLY want info about... Settings for caching extra work... ensuring the mobile is running seti while in use... choosing an optimised science application for your AMD mobile...]

Is it possible you did not turn it off as intended and it kept on going/crunching?
Capitalize on this good fortune, one word can bring you round ... changes.
