    Back again.

    It's been a while, hasn't it?
    Well life has taken a few odd turns and I gave up the crunching game for some time.
    It's been several years since I have done any serious crunching, and the last time I started it I had some issues and gave up again.
    What issues? both systems were getting up there in years and Boinc wasn't behaving on them.
    But now I'm back with a shiny new i7 desktop and reloaded A8 laptop.
    Not to see who I remember that might still be around from way back when...

    Welcome back! It's always good to have returning family. If you run into problems this time be sure to post them so we can help you out. Some BOINC projects aren't as easy as they should be to get running correctly.

    @Shiva, here and here only. I just haven't been active on the boards or crunching since about 2011. Life got in the way pretty badly and a lot of things were falling apart so I shut down a lot.

    Way K00L! And a nice new i7 is also a really good thing!


    If it's not broken, give me 5 more minutes!

    Re: Back again.

    Just got back into the crunching myself. Thought I was using the correct info from before, but just found out it was wrong after a 10 days of crunching on the wrong crossover ID. Most of my equipment from back then died long ago and my income could not replace it - fixed income at 1/3 what I had back even 2 years ago. Would love to get back into it better, but all I have is an old dual core and a really old laptop that has only an AMD64. The system I am typing from will not have Boinc due to its slowness and required use that cannot take the constant 90-100% cpu use.
