Try leaving both fields blank, and try again.

David,

Your Pentium D system still seems to be running BOINC 4.19 but the new TCM model has features that require an upgrade to version 5 of BOINC (the system has returned one failed TCM model with the message The system cannot find the file specified. (0x2) - exit code 2 (0x2)). You can get the latest official release from the download page. You\'ll need to stop BOINC and uninstall 4.19 before upgrading.

Not exactly related to your immediate problem, but upgrading should fix it for you.

From this, which is registered against the April 4th model crash results. There are several different computers registered against the account, this one is a Pentium D. (Note that this is the core client version, not the core manager version - it is possible to have a different version of the client to the manager, if the first one was not uninstalled when the update was installed).

<core_client_version>4.19</core_client_version>
<message>The system cannot find the file specified. (0x2) - exit code 2 (0x2)
</message>
<active_task_state>1</active_task_state>
<signal>0</signal>
