When I came home from work tonight my screen was blank and would not come on. I could not exit BOINC. I reset my PC (XP SP2, Pentium 4, BOINC 4.09). My PC came back up and everything worked, except BOINC was empty. It had lost track of SETI@home, LHC@home, and climateprediction.net. BOINC then downloaded new climateprediction.net and LHC@home work units to crunch. (SETI@home has been funky lately) The work completed before I reset my PC is still there at C:\\Program Files\\BOINC\\projects\\... . How can I get BOINC to see this previous work and upload it to the LHC@home and other projects? Thank you. |

If you don't have any WU's in the tab "Work" anymore, then they have already been uploaded and also reported. Detailed Owner's Manual is here. Greetings from Belgium |

Unfortunately the work is most likely gone. You can attempt to edit the client_state.xml file and reinsert them. However the risk of making a bigger mess for the effort involved outweights the benifits in my opinion. John Keck -- BOINCing since 2002/12/08 -- |

The workunits will be lost. But, do not worry the server will resubmit the WUs to somebody else. So we will get the results anyway. Christian S�ttrup LHC@home Developer |
