Thanks to all who helped. I think I have them fixed now. As suggested, it was a BIOS enable issue. Enabled in BIOS and re-installed software. Everything now seems to be working.

Thanks!
Craig.

You haven't looked close enough if you think your first computer is working fine. It completed SixTrack tasks sucessfully, as the other one would probably do if they hadn't run out. BOTH computers show 100% error rate for VirtualBox tasks, and the error messages suggest something is wrong with hardware support. My first action would be to check the BIOS settings regarding virtualization. For other options, please wait for somebody else to step up.


Thanks. I hadn't noticed that. Below is an example of the errors in Virtual Box:

Runtime error opening 'C:\ProgramData\BOINC\slots\0\boinc_26c29e8c79bd585e\boinc_26c29e8c79bd585e.vbox' for reading: -103 (Path not found.).

Hi,
I just started using BOINC a couple of days ago (vers. 7.8.3 (x64)). I have two laptops, both running Win 10. On the first one, everything seems to be working fine. But yesterday I tried installing BOINC on the second. Again everything seemed to install without error. I logged in using the same account details as the first. But after connecting with the same project (LHC@home) BOIC only ever shows "No work available to process". I looked at the event log, and it doesn't show anything unusual - no errors. I looked at my project task list. The first laptop is the only one that appears to have completed work successfully. The second laptop shows a list of tasks, but all display the comment "Error while computing".

I have tried uninstalling using the Windows control panel, but clearly a full uninstall is not being completed, leaving some residual files somewhere, because when I reinstall, it automatically completes the login with my previous details and preferences. And I get the same issues.

Regarding whether BOINC is installed as a service, I have no idea what this means. I followed the procedure outlined on the LHC@home website.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Craig.
