I am currently running Seti Boinc. I created account for climate prediction, downloaded latest Boinc version and downloaded climate WU\'s. In project tab it shows both Seti and Climate; but there are no Climate WU\'s listed and nothing seems to indicate there is anything happenin with the Climate Prediction? Almost like I never downloaded anything?

I see 3 models attempted to download. Digging farther the transfer is listed as \'aborted by user\' on all 3.

If you manually aborted the transfer then wait until tomorrow and try again.

If there is a checksum error or something that is being reported incorrectly then reset the project and it will try again.

In either case wait for all the downloads to complete. Some are pretty big files and it can take some time.

I did wait for the entire time. The files downloaded up to the 100% and then they disappeared and never appeared on the work tab

Ok that leaves option 2. Try resetting the project and see if you can get a good download.

Don, which version of BOINC are you running?
If you\'re using v4.45 of BOINC, you\'d be better advised to drop it for a later version. The v4.45 has a rather annoying download flaw that could be tripping you up.
