The preference you set for minimum disk space free has been exceeded by XX


Did you set it too use little space on the disk, or do you use a quotum?

It says "Preference limit disk usage to 0.17GB" Go to http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/ms/device/viewProfiles.do click on the appropriate profile for that machine and set "Use no more than X Gigabytes of disk space" to something higher, like 2gb. Click update in the "projects" tab in BOINC and it should pick up the new preference and download new work. If the same message comes up then you probably have local BOINC preferences set that over ride the settings at WCG. In BOINC go Advanced>>Preferences anc click "clear" on all 3 tabs. Or if you want to keep the local settings, just change disk usage to 2GB.

Correct, i didnt have to change it on the advanced preference tab, I forgot i made a Partition so i can install windows faster (5gig) instead of formatting the 100+ or so gigs that was on there, but i ran out of disk space, made a new partition, threw boinc on there and all is running good now =)

But what was wierd is it was running fine before that, but instead of the regular 0.3 days of work, i bumped it to 2 days
