For the past few weeks I have been running both CPDN and SETI with both using using 50% resources. SETI seems to be working fine but CPDN seems to have a few problems.

All was well for the first 10 dyas and I recieved steady credits but 8 days days ago I started to get this message on one of the 4 PCs I use;

\"climateprediction.net|Result sulphur_islw_000876884_0 exited with zero status but no \'finished\' file
climateprediction.net|If this happens repeatedly you may need to reset the project.
request_reschedule_cpus: process exited\"

Thinking I had a bad unit I reset the project but this has happened several times since. I have reset the project several time now. I have also noticed that the time to completion does not decrease.

This PC runs BOINC 5.2.13 and is running Sulphur cycle 422 under WinXP.

Any help would be appreciated. I will be away on a business trip for the next 2 weeks so may detach the project on this PC if I can\'t fix it. I will have my trusty laptop so will be able to see any replies to this message.

The message you got is just an advisory. It\'s OK to ignore it.
But if it happens often at short intervals, it may mean a problem with computer hardware / software. It would also be a good idea in this case to treat it as a warning, and make a backup of the BOINC folder. AFTER suspending BOINC, and then exiting.

I\'ve had it a couple of times over the months, and have just rebooted and the model continued from where it left off.
