I'm just wondering what CPU your computer is using. I had a similar problem with an AMD PC I'd bought from Dell. Luckily, I only had it a short time and was able to exchange it for an Intel model. I had no problems connecting with that PC.

I exchanged my PC for one with an Intel chipset. Works perfectly.

Hi Again,

I had the opportunity to exchange my AMD PC, since it was new from Dell, for an Intel PC, also new from Dell.

BOINC ran without any problems.

It seems to have nothing at all with the port, the firewall, or anything but the processor, IMO.

Maybe this should be investigated?

Thanks,
Andy

Yes. I wasn't clear in my first post, but all the BOINC .exe files are allowed in/out communication through my Norton firewall.

Hi,

I've done this on many other PCs, but I can't get BOINC to connect on my new Dell laptop. I've uninstalled, reinstalled, set my Norton firewall to allow access by ALL the .exe files in the Boinc directory. No help

Any Suggestions?

Thanks,
Andy

BOINC version 7.6.22 (x64)
