I just did a format/reinstall. I've been having an issue with my PC just freezing up and I have to hit the reboot. I know it isn't SETI because I have suspended tasks for several hours and it still freezes with no error. BUT sometimes when this happens BOINC has lost all reference of SETI. I have to complete re-add it. All Tasks are gone, EVERYTHING. Any suggestions? I reject your reality and substitute my own boincstats.com |

Failing hard disk? Inadvertent overclocking? I've suffered both in the last few months :-( Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe? |

Or problematic power supply? Broken cable someplace that intermittently makes a short circuit? A broken solder point on the motherboard? Broken RAM? A broken CPU? A hot CPU? A hot GPU? Is this a desktop PC or a laptop/notebook/tablet? How are you set up for cooling, of the individual hardware but also the case? Just some ideas. All difficult but not impossible to test. |
