It seems to be saying that it doesn't know about the location that you've chosen.
It may be a permissions problem, or you may need to include that drive in the list that Windows knows about.

The one year deadline is from 18 years ago, when the models used at that time, (Slab Ocean), took months to run.
It's just convenient to leave it at that, because the project uses a different way to limit the runs.

Each experiment is in "batches", (there's a number in the name which says which one it's from), and when the researcher has enough data returned, the batch is closed.
Any model data not returned at that point is discarded, so the cruncher loses out on finishing it.

So don't dilly dally around with getting a model run, and the data sent back. :)

Not sure what's wrong, but:
On the BOINC download page, Download BOINC client software, (at the bottom), version 7.18.1 is for Androids.

So, to start with, what OS are you running?
