I'm running SETI@home and EINSTEIN@home but I've only seen the problem with SETI (it runs 75% of the time so...).

I'm running version 6.4.5 under XP Pro and on several occasions I've found the screen saver running but when I type "any key", move the mouse or hit ctrl/alt/del the screen saver doesn't go away. The only way to get my system back is to hit the reset button which I don't like to do. I run as administrator if that matters.

Thanks for any help

I have just installed 6.4.5 on my wife's new computer running Vista Home Basic. I installed it in my administrator account and it runs fine there but it doesn't run in her user account. I tried doing an install in that account but only got a repair install nothing that allowed a set up and it still doesn't run there.

Also BOINC doesn't show up in the task manager as it does under WinXP. Any suggestions on how to get it to run under all users and show up in the services list?

Thanks
