No idea on your problem but thought I'd say - if you are doing ONLY Rosetta, then yes, the app should be staying in memory. If you are running any other project, then when that project switches in, Rosetta is removed from memory. I would suggest setting it to leave in memory just to be safe, either way...

Thanks, but I don't have enough memory to leave all suspended apps in memory at once (too many projects). And this problem always seems to happen exactly as I click the mouse, so it isn't likely to be app-switching-related (IMO).

OK, I'm seeing a problem that sounds similar to this one. Several times in the last few days I've had an R@H WU crash on me. It's happened every time precisely when I clicked on something that asked for a new GUI window/display. (Once it was when I was starting a card game app. The other times have been when I clicked on a link in FireFox to open a URL in a new tab.) It immediately causes an R@H failure message to pop up, followed by crashing my other application (FireFox, etc.) as well. It hasn't happened (yet) on any other app than R@H (and I'm running most of them).

I'm set to "not leave apps in memory," but then I keep BOINC (5.2.7) set to "Run Always", so it shouldn't be stopping in the first place. I'm running Win98SE (pretty recent drivers all around) on a 3.4GHz Intel chip w/512Mb of RAM. And I'm not overclocked.

Is anyone else seeing this particular behavior, or do you know what can be done about it?

[edit]
I just had this happen again, this time just when I was doing something in the BOINC manage Projects tab (I think just clicking on a project name).
