1) Message boards : Rosetta@home Science : New strange Rosetta POP-UP (Message 74341) Posted 14 Nov 2012 by John Lewis Highsmith Post: Hello everyone, im using windows 7, boin manager v7.0.28... And suddenly while my boinc was running, an empty pop-up from rosetta came up, like the screen when you activate your screensaver, but empty, with no data. It keeps poping up every 2 or 3 mins, its very annoying cause i have to close it every time. I saw no fix in options so i have my boinc closed. Any solution? whats the cause of this strange behavior? Thanks!! Sorry for bad englihs Argies: there is no need to apologize for "bad english". You did very well, far better than most of us if were we trying to write in another language. Instead of closing BOINC, please consider adding another project. and keep the work going.
2) Message boards : Rosetta@home Science : New strange Rosetta POP-UP (Message 74340) Posted 14 Nov 2012 by John Lewis Highsmith Post: This is also happening at RALPH@home. There is a glitch in the Rosetta Mini 3.43 and the Rosetta Mini Beta 3.43. When that app is running nothing gets done. Here is the report I posted at RALPH@home. Posted 14 Nov 2012 2:31:51 UTC Last modified: 14 Nov 2012 2:43:57 UTC "On each of my 6 cores there was the same problem. (Two of the w/u are labeled Rosetta Mini Beta 3.43 and 4 are Rosetta Mini 3.43.) None of the other projects could run. "System Idle" was at 99%. When I suspended R@h other projects started. After suspending all the projects except R@h it took over. There is no progress indicated after 11 minutes of running on 240 minutes of estimated run time. On resuming the other w/u the R@h did not yield the floor. My final step was to suspend R@h again, so the other projects could run. After posting this I thought of one additional step - resuming the R@h. When I did the w/u from other projects continued running. I'll check what happens when one of them completes." The following was posted 14 Nov 2012 4:23:48 UTC "The 6 "other" tasks were wcgrids. 2 finished approx. 30 minutes ago, and 2 R@h tasks picked up where they had left off. Now only 4 of the 6 cores have wcgrid tasks running on them, and nothing happening on the 2 that were taken over by the R@h. I am suspending the R@h until a solution is found." When I checked BM this morning I found that the problems were also associated with w/u from Rosetta@home I should have thought of that last night and suspended Rosetta then.___________
3) Questions and Answers : Windows : More WUs in account info than in BOINC Manager (Message 13392) Posted 10 Apr 2006 by John Lewis Highsmith Post: You may have had a download problem for a few Work units. Or these could be ghost work Units. This happens sometimes. It does not hurt anything unless you get a lot of them. Thank you, Snake Doctor. This is the first time I've had these and I was curious.

4) Questions and Answers : Windows : More WUs in account info than in BOINC Manager (Message 13194) Posted 7 Apr 2006 by John Lewis Highsmith Post: This holds for Rosetta and for RALPH. In R 3 in account list, 1 in BM. In RA 2 in account, 1 in BM. Any explanation? Sony PVG G300, XPH c SP2, 512M ram, plenty of disk space. Versions: rosetta 4.83 for Rosetta and rosetta_beta 4.96 for RA. Thanks.
