Merge

ps if you go to the message board page it allows you to search for topics.


Did that but the web page just changes to a google search result that was no help.

Thanks for pointing me in the direction though.

Anyone know why the "Merge client" function is disabled or when it might be back online?

Either will work, with one modification. If you choose the copy off and then copy back method, before you copy back you must install Boinc to the newly formatted drive, THEN shut it down and copy the copied off directory over the top of the newly installed one. Boinc, like most other programs, copies pieces of itself all over the hard drive, so just copying the directory back over without installing it won't work.


Thanks Mikey. I think I'll try the copy off/back method with your suggestions.

I have an athlon xp 3000+ system running windows xp sp2 that my daughter uses that I wold like to reformat the HD on. She has so much crap on there and it's starting to slow down because of it.

Question is...Can I backup the BOINC folder to an alternate location on my network and then copy it back after the format and run it? Or do I need to tell BOINC to not get any more work and let it drain itself of workunits and do a fresh install after formatting?

Thanks in advance.

Windows XP SP1
Haven't messed w/network at all.
No new firewalls either. I run Norton on that machine. My ISP has is own firewall.

It's a P4 2.8C on an 865PERL Intel board. 512 PC3200 ram, GForce4 video by MSI. Network is built into the M/B.
It's quite a mystery to me. I just keep deleting it...someday it may stay that way...maybe...?

I have a host that I have been trying to delete for months now. All results are at zero...the PC has never turned in a workunit. I'll delete the host and it always comes back. Anyone know what gives?

Post:
This really applies to any BOINC upgrade...
Do I need to uninstall the old version? It seems shameful to loose the WUs I've downloaded...or can I install 4.13 over the top of 4.12 and let it resume with number crunching from the data I've downloaded allready?...if that works.

Thanks in advance,

I agree Pascal...Berkeley is doing a fine job. I've got enough WUs in cache to last 2 or 3 more days. Even if I run out it's OK...I'll just wait patiently for more when released.

Roger that...my PCs that have 98SE on them are all working fine with BOINC 4.05. Of course that's all they do is crunching for SETI.
