I transferred from classic to BOINC yesterday (10 June 2005). Looking at the Messages and Work data on BOINC Manager, I think that I have completed several packets of data, but the Statistics page and the account information on the web site report no credit at all, other than from SETIclassic. Is there something more I need to do? I am leaving the machine alone for a few weeks and want to make sure I get started right.

Hello and welcome Bill,

you have already sent 2 WUs back , and they are waiting to be validated.

The proces of getting credit is somhow different from classic, as only valid results will get credit.

For information regarding Credits look here in the manual.

BTW:
The (very good) manual for Boinc is the BOINC Powered Projects Documentation by Paul D. Buck and the FAQ therein.

For questions about Boinc look in the BOINC-Wiki

Basically it can take from a few days to couple of weeks to get credit...

THANK YOU all very much. I was afraid that I had not set it up properly and that I would lose several weeks of processing. And thanks for pointing me to the manual. That is very helpful.
