BOINC downloads a WU, but then I get 02.11.2006 20:17:58\|rosetta@home\|Process creation failed: Der Prozess kann nicht auf die Datei zugreifen, da sie von einem anderen Prozess verwendet wird. (0x20) Any ideas? Martin. ID: 30515 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

I'm to the point where I'm wondering how many RALPH@Home volunteers are running with there screensavers on. My system ran verions 5.16 to 5.25 perfectly. Then 5.3x hits and I have one out of three WU's failing. I switched my screensaver to blank and I haven't had a single error yet. Try switching your's off and see if the WU will start.

You don't happen to see two boinc icons on the bottom toolbar? I had two instances of BOINC launching at the same time when I had this happen. Sounds weird I know.
