Sorry if I am on the wrong page but I have never used a BB before. Running SETI 7.0.64, Windows 7, and keep getting to the end of a work unit, then get message Computation Error every time! Do I disconnect from SETI@HOME and try again, or is it a problem you are aware of, what is the fix?, (if there is one keep it simple thanks). Regards, Malcolm mjstargazer1@hotmail.co.uk |

You are running SETI@home Enhanced v6.03 tasks with BOINC 7.0.64 on windows 8. ;-) WRT to your computation errors: your tasks are exiting with status 196 (0xc4) EXIT_DISK_LIMIT_EXCEEDED. So, check the remaining space on your disk and your preferences for disk size settings (Disk: use at most _ GB; Disk: leave free at least; Disk: use at most _% of total) Gruß, Gundolf Computer sind nicht alles im Leben.

Thank you. You appear to know better than I do what I am running. I will look at the details and see if that solves the problem. Thank you again, Malcolm. |

Hi, I have checked my details and I have the following. use at most is set at 250 GB, the leave at least is set to 20, and the use at most is 80%. I am using a partitioned HD with 2 x 250 GB, I have 'free' 35.9 GB. I do not normally have this problem when running S@H, could you suggest what I can adjust please. Regards, Malcolm. |

My first guess would be: set leave at least to 5 GB, and the use at most to 90%. There should be a line in your BOINC event log (ctrl+shift+E) like 26/05/2013 12:22:02||Disk: 29.98 GB total, 2.54 GB freeand further down 26/05/2013 12:22:02||Preferences limit disk usage to 1.86GB(those are values from my laptop) Gruß, Gundolf |
