Chrulle (et. al.)

What do you suggest is a reasonable time to set for "write to disk" to avoid this problem? I know that on one of my machines it was a MAJOR problem that caused me to eventually detach it from LHC. (And that machine was a 3.6 Pentium... so you probably want it attached! :) )

In order to rejoin LHC, several days ago I detached from the project and then, using my old URL and account ID, tried to attach to LHC. This procedure worked on one of my computers but consistently does not work on the other. After appearing to attach to LHC (on the projects tab, BOINC correctly calculates the percentage of time to allocate to LHC and LHC looks like the other BOINC projects with the correct blue bar length), I get the following error message:

http://lhcathome.cern.ch/ - 2005-02-25 08:02:46 - Requesting 25309 seconds of work

http://lhcathome.cern.ch/ - 2005-02-25 08:02:54 - Detaching from project

Both computers (the one that reattached successfully and the one that fails) are Windows XP; neither (to the best of my knowlwdge) has SP2 yet installed.

Thanks in advance for any help.
