I reinstalled Boinc and reapplied my user ID . I was in second stage of a model. Have I lost the previous model and must start over? |

Not if you have a backup of the Run. In which case, copy the backup over your new boinc Folder as re-start as usual. (If backup was to CD, it is necessary to reset the \"read only\" flag on the restored Folder set by Windows.) [Edit] Sometimes error conditions show in \"Your Account\" but that doesn\'t affect the science results -- and credit will be applied once the Model running from backup passes the Model\'s highest logged Trickle.

I\'ve had the same thing, should I report to someone that my run has been lost ? |

No need, IO. The system is set up to allow for this. The servers will know about the failure and flag the data set for re-issue, up to a max of 5 times. You can tell the \"issue\" number by the last digit in your model name. Zero for the 1st time, up to 4 for the 5th time. |
