Posted 10 Jan 2018 by Jim Post: I've hit a new problem. Norton N360 program, ws.reputation.1 is blocking qcn_graphics_8.07_windows_x86_64.exe. I wonder if anyone else is experiencing it? I've tried a couple of suggested ways to exclude qcn from scaning, etc., to no avail. May have to call Norton. |

Questions and problems :
Loss of Project Web Pages access
(Message 81869)
Posted 8 Oct 2017 by Jim Post: The problem has been solved, Ageless. The default web browser, Internet Explorer, had lost its "default" status. I could still access the internet by clicking on the Internet Explorer icon, and access internet, via my ISP, EarthLink. My discovery was accidentally provided by Norton 360. When I clicked "Check for New Version", a window notified that that was not possible; no default browser was found. I then went and reset it as the default browser. I don't, yet, know why it lost its status, but will continue to investigate. Cheers, |

Loss of Project Web Pages access
(Message 81824)
Posted 5 Oct 2017 by Jim Post: Loss of access is still a problem, Ageless. I've tried temporarily disabling Norton 360 firewall, and Malwarebytes, with no access. Uninstalling/reinstalling BOINC has not improved things, either. I can live with this, for the while, certainly, until the problem is solved. |

Posted 24 Sep 2017 by Jim Post: I cannot connect with any of the Project Web Pages, after BOINC ver. 7.8.2 (x64) was installed. My system is Windows 7, on a DELL Latitude E7240. Access is only via my ESP (EarthLink), and http route (Google). No difficulties have been encountered in downloading/running the WU's of various projects, however. |

Posted 5 Oct 2014 by Jim Post: As a back-up, I have re-activated QCNLive. Also, a link to USGS site for earthquake reporting was saved. I don't know how effective or useful any quake info., as reported by my JoyWarrier 24F8 USB sensor, will be to them. However, as things stand, it's got to better than nothing. Anyone else try this approach? |

Questions and problems :
client connection lost
(Message 53965)
Posted 5 May 2014 by Jim Post: NodeEraser -- You pbly. won't want to change some "Compatibility" settings in the Program Files BOINC folder, in an attempt to duplicate my own particular problems. That might shed some light on this issue, however. I really don't know the technological basics as to why this set of incompatibilities occurred, for me. Certainly, there are a large number of hardware/software systems in the BOINC net., and it's amazing they all run. One would think BOINC would automatically have sized up each computer, and adjusted "Compatibility" settings. For my own part, after this revelation, I went and changed all third-party (non-BOINC) settings (most were not set to "Windows 7). My DELL, with Windows 7, is now running okay on the various pgrm. WU's (as well as T4T). Let me know, if you find out something, from your end of things. Cheers, |

Posted 4 May 2014 by Jim Post: Windows Sidebar Gadgets Problem solved -- After changing all "Compatibility" settings, in both the Program Files* and ProgramData folders, from "Windows XP (Service Pack 3)" to "Windows 7"(Located in the ProgramData folder), and, after changing all the main BOINC programs* (Located in Program Files folder), all BOINC programs still worked correctly, as well as the Windows "gadgets". Summarizing: All "Compatibility" settings had to be changed; nothing was done automatically, by the installed BOINC program. This "cruncher" has no regrets, certainly; it was an interesting learning experience. Cheers, to all. . . * boinc (BOINC client), boinccmd, boincmgr, boincscr, boincsvcctrl, boinctray. |

Posted 3 May 2014 by Jim Post: Without going into the various system restore-point issues, I'll focus on an interesting revelation, from further troubleshooting: 1) BOINC_7.2.42_windows_x86_64_vbox installed, does run, now, with internet access. 2) Other issues: a) The projects' WU "compatibility" settings must be run at their original "Windows XP (Service Pack 3)" setting, in order for my DELL's "sidepanel" gadgets to run (calendar, clocks, etc.). This has a negative impact on some communicative aspects of QCN. b) If the projects' WU "compatibility" settings are set for "Windows 7", BOINC continues to run, with internet connection, but the "sidepanel" gadget access is lost (Please don't laugh, I like my clocks & calendar.). c) As far as a cursory look in the registry (via a "gadgets" search), the values appear to be unchanged, under both conditions.). Am wondering if other negative developments might occur, in the future, if the WU's are run at "Windows XP (Service Pack 3)", on my Windows 7 machine. Also, perhaps I've neglected to properly set up BOINC to run on Windows 7? It seems that the WU's "Compatibility" settings should automatically reflect the current operating system (Windows 7, in my case)? |

Posted 1 May 2014 by Jim Post: Noderaser -- Current findings: 1) As it was later discovered, BOINC rev. 7.2.42 did not provide an internet connection for any BOINC 64-bit programs, on my DELL (Latitude, E7240). 2) The first, 32-bit BOINC version which provided VM ops. (I've forgotten it's rev. number.) ran all pgrms., including T4T. They were run on my Sony VAIO, w/Windows VISTA. 3) Switching to 64-bit, on my DELL, w/Windows 7, I am now successfully running rev. 7.0.64. (Oracle's VB 4.3.10 has been downloaded/installed.) 4) It doesn't appear that, running Windows from different restore points, made any difference in BOINC internet connection -- at least, from my present perspective. Any ideas? |

Posted 29 Apr 2014 by Jim Post: Update II: 1) BOINC rev. 7.2.42 now successfully running WU's. 2) The problem, now, after restoring to an earlier Windows system, appears to have been due to one of Window's downloads (The exact one, causing the disconnect from the client, has not, yet, been determined.). Perhaps, other users might profit from this scenario. |

Posted 29 Apr 2014 by Jim Post: Follow-up: 1) BOINC ver. 7.2.41 uninstalled (This one was the one during which connection w/client was lost.) 2) BOINC ver. 6.12.43 re-installed. Results: Connection with client was re-established. WU's are now being run (Rosetta, Einstein, CPDN, QCN). |
