Normally two computers have to return the result they crunched correctly, in order to receive credit. In your case though, you didn't return the result correctly, you had errors. When you return a task in error, you do not get any credit.

Now then, the error you are returning is:
<message>
Incorrect function. (0x1) - exit code 1 (0x1)
</message>

You could check the logs that BOINC makes and see what it said in there that was causing this at that time and post that for us.

Find the stderrdae.txt and stdoutdae.txt files in your BOINC Data directory, open them and look up what happened the last time before you uploaded and reported the tasks. Post that information here (don't post the whole contents of the files in question, please as that's OTT.

I said they're in your BOINC Data directory. By default you'll find this directory at C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\BOINC\ ... it can be hidden from view.
