I am running 4 WU (see text below beginning at 10.02.2007), the 1. task finished O.K. and a waiting WU started -
but then: the other 3 aktive tasks \"exited with zero status . . .\" and restarted - I think without loosing (?) CPU-time.
No separate trickles were generated.

What happened ???

The zero status message is usually benign. It\'s often associated with Windoze auto time updates. Unless they becone continuous, it probably won;t hurt anything.

A bit of time is lost each time it happens -- back to the previous Checkpoint.


OT: There\'s a fair amount of interest in the Core 2 Quads on the other CPDN forum. Your comments re. your experience would be welcome.
