Ive been crunching with BOINC for climateprediction.net since almost it came out. I have more than 5 WUs but I havent recieved ANY credits, I havent done any trickles... Its like they vanish... I have no idea what the problem is so its hard to give any info. Generally BOINC does suck Im afraid :(, its just really hard to use... Could anyone help?

Hi Mardeth
I'm afraid I can't help but would suggest you pose the question <a href="http://www.climateprediction.net/board/viewforum.php?f=17">here</a> where i'm sure you'll get plenty of help

You will need to register seperately for that board but its well worth it and only takes a minute

Hi Mardeth
You do seem to have a problem! I can't "see" any data about your computer, let
alone about trickles.

Wherever you post, can you tell us about your type of computer (PC / Mac), the
operating system, speed, ram, and whether you're crunching "classic" or BOINC.
If BOINC, what version. This would help a little. As it is, all that can be seen
seems to indicate classic CP. And your Total Credit, Model Years, and time you
joined agrees roughly with what I have, so it seems your system is working, but
not displaying.

Also, if you're running Classic, there is a separate area to post for help to
which I don't have access. I don't know how this affects what results can seen by BOINCers.

Ok. Im running:

-BOINC version 4.05. (Classic worked just fine)
-Windows Xp SP1
-Barton 2800+
-768 DDR

When I look in BOINC at the "Projects" page it show my total credits to be ~8600 with an average of 56. So it should be doing something right.

odd, I can't even see a computer ID for your account. Have you done any "merge"-es of computers? Perhaps you "merged off" a computer and it got "lost in space?"

I'm also running BOINC 4.05, (successfully), but Carl's idea about a past merge
has given me an idea.

How about starting a "new" computer? If the server got confused in the past,
perhaps it will get confused again and add on your old credits. At the least, you
will have something showing and accumulating credits.

I know people have accidently created a new appearance, but I don't know how to do
it, accidently or deliberately.

I looked through the Top Computer list, but I can't see you, so the server probably
can't see your trickles, although there is a problem with the page for numbers 61-80.

No merge that I know of. Im hoping that at least the work Ive has been recieved... I think Ill just find a new project and do that for while. Need some change after 14 months of crunching numbers :), will be back for sure thought.
