That's not much space to run CPDN in and certainly not enough memory to run it with. That translates to 470MB that BOINC is allowed to use on disk and 102MB of memory that it can use when active.

If you do not want to use these preferences, open BOINC Manager->Advanced view->Advanced->Preferences->Clear.

Then the web preferences will be used again.
Else you'll have to change your local preferences to give BOINC some more leeway.
