Greg,
I did a full Hard Drive format, there are no files project or otherwise then reinstalled XP. The slots are cleaned up.
After reinstalling Boinc and Rosetta as a project letting it manage itself for 24hours I had all the same errors as before, lockfile, not releasing and as always no credit. I have been running the services from a nonSystem disk, I will reinstall on the system disk and see how that works.
Thanks for taking time to help out.

And now 16 more successes out of 18 making 40 out of 50. Most errors came early, so I'm now confident enough to up my run-time from 2 to 3 hours again.

Update on this. In the last week, 116 MiniRosetta 1.45 tasks, 3hr runtime:
64 Success (55%)
52 Failure (45%)

Of failures:
19 manually aborted
28 "Can't acquire lockfile" errors
5 Exit code -1073741819 (0cx0000005)

26 Rosetta Beta 5.98 tasks, 3hr runtime - 100% success.

So, better than last time I ran with 3hr runtimes (was 43%) but still some way to go. I think the figure for 2hr run times was 73% (up to 80% with v1.45 on above figures).

A number of failed 1.45 abinitio-tasks in the last 24 hours:

These two I had to abort, they had run more than 20 hours on 4 hours default, refused to display graphics:

come on guys..your killing me.
2 compute errors in 8 hours today and then 4 out of 6 compute errors on the 11th that can be placed on bad tasks. What is with tasks getting half way and then crashing with no credit? You should make rosie grant the claimed credit on these errors since it is computing the credit. then we are not wasting our cpu time and electricity on 0 points. I could have got 101 points for the second crash. this month i have lost 18.5 hrs in bad tasks that died halfway and I could have got 508.4 credits if there was granted credit for crashing. The crash rate this month so far has been 6% on my system.

Here are the latest tasks that died.

With 1.47 launched these results are perhaps not too interesting, but to be on the safe side:

This has indeed been a Black Monday, with all 1.45 tasks reserved for the coming week already crashed.

Early crashes with no result file:

2 tasks lr5_score12
1 task cc_3_5_nocst4
1 task 1_irna
1 task cs_vanilla

You seem to be inserting a few extra characters when you create links, probably quote marks, which prevents me from following the links.

**note** i edited his url lines to get rid of the " ". thing should be ok now.
there is nothing to see there as it was a user abort and that cancels run time information. this is for both links.

What the heck is this error now? did your task go bad at the last minute?
can someone from the team explain what the heck 0xc blah blah error means?

I was giving you 6hr run times but now i have dropped to 4. to many credit losses lately. If the 1.47's crash I will be reducing my resource share as well, until you guys figure out what the heck is going on.

I'm new here so i don't know much about this program. But for a couple of days i don't get new task(s) this is what i see at messages window:

5-1-2009 17:28:28|rosetta@home|Sending scheduler request: To fetch work. Requesting 21601 seconds of work, reporting 0 completed tasks
5-1-2009 17:28:33|rosetta@home|Scheduler request completed: got 0 new tasks

Can i do something about this or are their just not any new tasks at the moment?

It would appear that there are no new tasks at the moment. Be patient and all will be revealed. There haven't been any announcement from the team so either there is a problem their end or they are getting some new work units ready.
