I just started WCG about a week ago, and I noticed that four of the first results I sent in were invalid. Here's a result log for one of them: Result Name: MCM1_ 0000564_ 4474_ 1--

When I go to "My contribution" "Results Status" and filter for invalid results, I find those four. When I filter for valid results, I don't find anything. Is there some problem with my installation that I need to fix? |

There is a known problem with MCM 7.26 which causes invalids if it is stopped and re-started. 7.28 fixes this. If you have any 7.26 abort them and grab the 7.28 and you shouls be ok

I would also ask:
----------------------------------------What kind of system are you running? Is it overclocked? Is there any reason your using BOINC v.6.10.58? I use BOINC v.7.0.28 and v.7.0.64 on different systems and haven't had any issues with invalids (yet). They also run 24/7 (not sure if that matters). Here's a link to my systems. http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=user&proj=bwcg&name=351595    |

Running 24/7 means there are no re-starts on 7.26 therefore no invalids

Ok, thanks. I've aborted all my 7.26 units. Will it automatically get 7.28 next time it gets more work, or do I need to tell it to do that?

Hello rinonucuthalion,
Everything is MCM 7.28 now except for individual resends of old 7.26 work. Lawrence |
