The program is on a drive with 698 GBs of free space, preferences set to: Use at most 100gbs Use at least .10 gbs Use at most 20% of total space Tasks checkpoint to disk at most every 60 seconds Use at most 50% of page file Help please.

Last modified: 2 Apr 2014, 17:05:33 UTC How large is the hard drive that has 698GB free? The program may be on a drive or partition with 698GB free, but did you install the data directory on the same drive as well? When checking in the messages, (CTRL+SHIFT+E), can you find what the actual message from Seti is? Can you please post it, and maybe the 5 lines top and bottom around it? ID: 53479 ·
