I have a Windows system that has been running BOINC for muitiple years on various versions of the BOINC Manager. When I tried to upgrade to 6.6.20 I got an error that it could not find the .MSI file. The path to the file location appeared correct. I tried another down load no help. I tried to deinstall to do a fresh install .. same error. I have manually executed the .MSI from its download directory (using the Find command) and same result. Suggestions and help are now needed. |

Look in this FAQ for all the options and more. The best thing is to do a repair install with your previous BOINC version to fix the corruption. |

I am not very good at this, so please go easy on me. Just upgraded to the 6.6.20 version. Runs a AP for about a minute, slows down, then locks up everything. Running XP Pro, 2 gig of ram. AMD-4000. Video card is only 265 ddr2. Upgraded the power supply to handle a 512 ddr2 video card. I still get the same problem. With the old version 6.4.5 had no problems at all. Is it ok run the old version and not the 6.6.20 version. |
