Work Unit errors

There's a notorious problem with HPF2 on Vista and Win 7 machines... Many people just don't run them, cuz although most error in the first few minutes, a couple will go till they hit the time limit (50 hours iirc)

WCG couldn't find how to fix it and said it wasn't wide spread enough to justify further searching (again iirc)

ah thank you, i guess i missed this announcement regarding HPF2 somewhere. do you have a link to where they said this? not being able to run this on win7 or vista is not important enough for them? i think this is a huge deal considering most machines that aren't ancient are using either vista or win7. thanks though, i'll be disabling these WU's as well.

I gave up on HPF2 which is a shame because its a good project. Problems are only on win7 machines, never personally seen the 50 hour error though.
