 I am getting the following error and Boinc will not process any downloads. milkyway_0.4_windows_intelx86.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. I have this running on several other computers. Does anyone have any ideas? I uninstalled and reinstalled several times as well as deleting all folders and registry entries. Running on a Pentium III windows Xp |

 What can you find on the MilkyWay forum on that topic? Gruß, Gundolf Computer sind nicht alles im Leben. (Kleiner Scherz)   |

 You should better ask somewhere on the MilkyWay@home's message boards. BOINC dev message boards are devoted to BOINC development. Peter |

 Verify if you have the latest directX and drivers and don't forget to copy atical*.dll to amdcal*.dll (readme file in milkyway). Verify too your app_info.xml file.  note: in property of the exe file verify if you have unlock the file. without this it will be block by the system. |
