I ran memtest86+ four times without errors uninstalled BOINC completely and left it like that. I re-installed BOINC using Fedoras Add/Remove Software app and when I came to the point where I get to choose projects, World Community Grid was greyed out and on choosing that it says "This project may not have work for your type of computer."?
