Hi, I'm using BOINC 5.2.13 on three pcs with Windows XP professional SP2. On each one of these I attached to several projects, like seti@home, climateprediction, lhc@home, predictor@home, einstein@home, simap, ufluids, worldcommunitygrid,... All the projects share the same (default) level of resources on my machines. On the least powerful of these three, my laptop, a DELL inspiron 510m, 1 pentium 1440MHz and 1GB ram, it happens that at a certain point all the projects remain without work, apart from climateprediction that seems to have work forever. So the boinc client doesn't ask the other projects for new work because it's always overcommitted. I would like not to abort the computation(or to suspend it) for climateprediction... Is there something I must do to correct this problem, or can you fix it... ? Many thanks, Marco

CPDN work takes a long time and some of the sulphur models have relativily short deadlines (only 6 months) this can cause your computer to only work on it for some time. Once the CPDN workunit is complete you will not download another for some time to make up for the extra time it is getting now.

Two things you can do to help stop this from happening, 1. detach from 1 or more projects 2. lower your connect to, to a very low number like .5
