I am having similar issues and all bonic activity stops when screen saver activates. I can tell this because I have a CPU and RAM meter up on the LCD screen on my keyboard. Once I hit "any" key or move mouse it picks up again.

I just installed Boinc, had Grid before, still use Grid as manager. Until this install (ATI drivers finally work well enough), my XP Pro 64 would run projects just fine. Now I have the issue with any screen saver stalling the projects. I know this because I have a CPU & Ram meter up on the LCD on my keyboard. As soon as I touch a key or move a mouse it picks up again. I moved to Boinc because my reading said I need to use Boinc instead of Grid to use my GPU. I like to let the machine run during the night now that it is cold but it is pointless if projects won't run, any ideas?

Running XP64 Pro (fully patched) I downloaded and installed BOINC client. After reboot, the client starts and is stuck on retiieving status, add project does not function, Run CPU benchmarks does not work etc. any thoughts/ideas? My PC is behind a WRT54G firewall/router. And no I have not run BOINC software before.
