(Message 58120) Posted 22 Dec 2008 by HughfCT Post: Seasons Greetings, Wondering what is being done to address persistant crashes on FOLDIT for windows Vista users. Issues have been ongoing since latest update, prior to which no vista related issues existed for this user. FOLDIT simply stops working when protein is pulled or shaken rebuilt etc. Have tried to reinstall application four times, as well as reinstalling windows vista, with short term results. i.e; foldit works for about 30 minutes after a full reinstall or vista reinstallation. Have contacted admin with regards to this and admin has implied that the issue is in the domain of vista as an ineffective operating system, and that I should run XP. FOLDIT worked fine for me until this latest update, and now it doesnt work at all. What does the Baker Lab intend to do resolve these issues related to exclusively to Vista users? HUGHfCT

Have fun! The file is called "ignore the rest"? - Just defines the portion of the search space being investigated. daemons are background tasks, deamons are evil. Graphics, at present, it depends on your BOINC version, Rosetta version and your platform (Windows/Linux/Mac). And Windows Vista has some quirks when BOINC is run as a service. Aborting tasks, don't do it just hoping for a better name :) It is possible you will get zero credit for the aborted task.
