Every time I restart my computer, the project progress resets to 0%. I\'ve been running this for quite awile now and work done says 18144.0 average work 291.25 and progress 8.13%.

Most projects go to 0 at the reset of the computer, it takes time to calculate the percentage done, and since CPDN is so big, it takes quite a while before it will show the true percent done. This is normal.

There are a small number of machines which do crash their models on shutdown, if you think yours may be one of these then try right-clicking on the icon and selecting \'exit\' before shutting down your PC.

I think your problem may be that you\'re not running the computer for long enough to reach the point at which the model\'s data is saved. So the only re-start point is at the beginning.

But the REALLY bad news is that the slab models that you have been trying to run became obsolete late last year. There is just no point in running them.

If you leave your computer running for e.g. 6 hours or more at a time, then you may be able to run the new Coupled Ocean models. But these are much longer than the slab models, (160 model years), and take several months running 24/7.

And if you do want to continue, and you\'re still using a version 4.* of BOINC, you *MUST* use Windows uninstall to remove it, and then download the latest 5.* version. The new models won\'t run with 4.* versions.

Sorry, I erred in this post -- I didn\'t add my own comments before clicking \"post.\" No way to undo.

I am having, perhaps, a similar problem. I crashed a few models last week, but finally got going and have now roughly 110 hours CPU on a model. (About 4% completion.) However, there\'s no indication of this progress in my \"statistics\"-- no credit, etc. I\'m concerned that something is getting lost. I have had successful trickles, so there is communication going on.
