Hi and welcome to the board. 1.022Go should be enough. Are all 3 preferences consistent with allowing at least a Go? Use no more than x GB Leave at least x GB Use no more than xx% of total space You may need to increase the % figure or reduce the 'Leave at least' figure |

Have you already completed models? Climate keeps a lot of data on the disk. to check for dead or complete models: Look in your BOINC directory (normally in program files if you're using Windows) You'll see a projects folder. In that folder there is a climateprediction.net subfolder. Inside that are your models. The current model shows as two files and a folder: one .xml file, one .zip file and a folder with the same name. I'm not sure about dead models, but a finished model will just have the folder with a lot of zip files in it. What I do: When a new model has sent its first trickle and the previous model doesn't show in the work tab in the BOINC interface (that's to make sure) I move the completed model to a backup I keep on another disk. That frees up space for BOINC (you can see that in the disk tab) and keeps the zipped files in case they're required for further studies.
