I'm running version 6.4.5 under XP Pro and on several occasions I've found the screen saver running but when I type "any key", move the mouse or hit ctrl/alt/del the screen saver doesn't go away. The only way to get my system back is to hit the reset button which I don't like to do. I run as administrator if that matters. Thanks for any help |

I'm running SETI@home and EINSTEIN@home but I've only seen the problem with SETI (it runs 75% of the time so...). |

Seeing how another person has this same problem, I put it into Trac, the BOINC bug database: [trac]#831[/trac] |

I'm having the same issue. ATI 4850 card, XP pro, 8-12 graphics drivers. The problem started when I changed my graphics card to the current one. I'm running 6.4.5 Boinc manager (re installed), The screen saver says it is it is "shutting down" but I need to use the three finger salute to kill the process.. I'm running seti@home. |
