My pc has crashed, and I\'ve lost all the work done. It will mean I have to download and begin again. |

No idea as to why it happened without details. If it happens again, please post as much as you can about the crash -- entries from the Messages tab and anything else that seems pertinent. Checked you machine config. I\'ve seen this before but don\'t know what it is, so more details would be helpful: AMD Duron(tm) Processor Pentium. The video card ID might be helpful. (Is the latest driver installed?) A crash doesn\'t mean that you must download an begin again; boinc should handle work-unit download for you after a crash. (If more than a crash or two, though, boinc might make you wait because daily max was exceeded.) Hang with us and we\'ll help all we can.
