After each launch of CPDN (boinc 4.02), when it try to resume computation (\"Resuming computation for result 0364_000029093_0 using hadsm3 version 4.02\"), I have these message \"Can\'t load \"boinc.dll\", will not be able to determine idle time\", and for each users on my computer (Windows XP Home). I see that my time lose a few minutes (instead of having 01:08:04, I have 1:04:16). Do I lose some computation or is just my time wrong ? Why do I have this problem ?
Sorry for my bad english.

Hm, when I installed BOINC 4.x over my existing 3.x, on some (not all) machines I watched, that it couldn't copy/install the actual version from 4.x-package.

I had to exit BOINC complete, reboot machine without autostarting BOINC and then, I could perform the complete install of 4.x

Maybe, an older BOINC.DLL stayed on your system and is causing your problem ?

Try to reinstall the 4.x, having an eye on the install of the boinc.dll ...
