Check the date and time on c:\windows\system\foldtraj.scr and look if there's a file called sspred.val in c:\program files\distributed folding project\ (or wherever you installed it).

[High Jumbllama]

I already found out about the sspred.val. It exists in the program folder and I even tried copying it to the c:\windows\system folder as I was getting a specific error for that file.

The date and time for Foldtraj.scr is May 31st, 2002 12:27:40PM for both created and modified time.

[Brian the Fist]

Then it could be an unrelated problem. I suggest trying the command-line client - if this works without crashing, it is probably a video driver bug. Although I have not had any problems with nVidia drivers before so Im not sure how likely that is. Do you have any 'special' OpenGL drivers installed for your video card?

[High Jumbllama]

I have the 29.40 drivers running for the video card. Asus came out with their version of the drivers. I have not added any special openGL drivers. I unded up redoing my machine last night and am currently running a set to see if maybe something had unknowingly gotten screwed up that a full reinstall may fix.

[High Jumbllama]

Seems to be fine. It has processed two whole sets without any crash or error, one overnight and one during the day without any interruption from me. I checked the stats from another computer and am not at home yet so I'll check when I get home to be absolutely sure. Maybe I'll get back up into 13th place again on my team. Maybe.

[High Jumbllama]

Whatever it was, it is gone. Got the Screensaver on my home 98SE machine and I am in the process of adding the text client as a service to the machines on a WIn2000 network I set up. Soon, my rank should rise sharply.
