"All man born has a right to life and no man born has the right to take that life"

Hi Ancient One,

If you click 'Your Account' -> Computers View -> Tasks (for your Q9650) -> Show Names (in the Task column heading) -> hadcm3n_t4ck_1940_40_007312679_1 -> the '+' next to Stderr,

... If you click all of those, and then scroll down till you see "Trickle", you will see just above 'Trickle':

...

forrtl: Access is denied.

Sorry, too many model crashes! :-(

This is the error log for the task that crashed.

The "access is denied" error suggests a problem with the permissions in your boinc installation.

When you installed Boinc, did you right-click on the installer and choose "Run as Administrator"? That made a difference for me.

These "Output file ... absent" errors are nothing to worry about. They appear in the log when a task terminates early.

Have some message lines been deleted from your posting?
Do you have the apps left in memory when BOINC swaps projects?
(You've got more than enough to do this.)
