OS Windows XP professional with SP2 and all the latest updates.

Since downloading the latest version of BOINC software my system only runs the SETI project whilst the Climate prediction project is always showing pre-empted. What is the solution to this problem please?

EDF (earliest date first) is caused by:

1) A deadline within 24 hours.
2) A deadline within 2 * the connect time.
3) A failure of the Round Robin simulator to finish a result within 90% of its deadline.

A project not requesting work is caused by:
1) A host that is in NWF (no work fetch)
2) A project that has enough work on a host that has enough work.
3) A project that has a LTD that is negative enough.

NWF (no work fetch) is caused by:
1) A failure of the Round Robin simulator to get a result done within 90% of a deadline if the resource share of the next project to request work from is added to the Round Robin simulation.

Work will always be requested from somewhere, even if that somewhere has a very negative LTD and/or the host is in NWF (no work fetch) if there is a CPU that is idle and there is a network connection.


The report of work completed will be made at the earliest of:
A new work fetch.
24 hours before the deadline of a result (or immediately if the result finishes after 24 hours before the deadline).
Manual update by the user.
Contact for a trickle. (CPDN only so far).
Connect every X days after a result is completed.
This is done because remote procedure calls are moderately expensive for the server, and it is good to reduce the server load by doing several things at once.
