1) Message boards : BOINC client : Buffer Overrun in Boinc.EXE - which projects are being affected by this? (Message 7307) Posted 7 Jan 2007 by raidengl Post: My version of Boinc is the most recent download from here. My hard drives file system type is NTFS. But thankfully I have the problem fixed lets just hope this monster isn't a hydra and that it's ugly head doesn't reappear

2) Message boards : BOINC client : Buffer Overrun in Boinc.EXE - which projects are being affected by this? (Message 7217) Posted 1 Jan 2007 by raidengl Post: Udate I uninstalled boinc and the directory. Then I ran disk defrag. Then I rebooted the computer running chkdisk. Finally I reinstalled boinc and attached back to climate prediciton.net and everything seems to be happy and ducky. It meanse that I lost the project for climate prediction that I was working on but such is life.

3) Message boards : BOINC client : Buffer Overrun in Boinc.EXE - which projects are being affected by this? (Message 7216) Posted 1 Jan 2007 by raidengl Post: My boinc is down right now because of a buffer over run and I didn't know how to fix it. My Computer is in no way associated with AOL. I'm running XP pro SP 2 with a Pentium 4 2.6 and this is the error message that I get Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime error Buffer overrun detected Program: c:\\Program Files\\Boinc\\boinc.exe A buffer overrun has been detected which has corrupted the program's internal state. The program cannot safely continue execution and must now be terminated. I'll have to try deleating the entire boinc directory and then reinstalling and see if that fixes it. I'm attached to Seti and to Climateprediction.

4) Message boards : BOINC client : BOINC keeps crashing (Message 7138) Posted 27 Dec 2006 by raidengl Post: Ok so I have been running boinc since they moved over to it and have been running SETI and more recently Climate prediction. I have a Pentium 4 2.6ghz running XP Pro SP2 with the latest version of BOINC plus all the latest and greatest updates auto updated and installed. Then yesterday out of no where I get this error message. Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime error Buffer overrun detected Program: c:\\Program Files\\Boinc\\boinc.exe A buffer overrun has been detected which has corrupted the program's internal state. The program cannot safely continue execution and must now be terminated. Anyone have this one happen to them yet. I've unisntalled the full program and reinstalled it and I get the same error.
