GLITCH = Gremlins Loose In The Computer House

The old Sidekick for DOS, among other programs, did the same thing to me.

I have downloaded the WINNT version and have tried it without SETIDriver.
Same results.   BUT, for some reason or another, the darned setup started
functioning last night ON ITS OWN!!!  Now I don't believe in gremlins and
the
ilk but, I didn't do anything except leave my computer running overnight
and
it took off on its own.  What gives?

As the French say, "C'est le vie".

I assume that you are downloading the WINNT version from Berkeley.
Also, as
silly as this sounds, don't rename the client and also try running it
without SETI Driver - let's get SETI Driver out of the way while
troubleshooting.

Thank you!  I've tried a "New" install and the problem persists and I
do
NOT
overclock my CPU.  Any other thoughts?

When I set up my new computer to run SETI@Home Command line and
SETIDriver,
I
receive this error message after about one minute:
"SETI@Home-cmdline.exe
has
encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the
inconvenience."
I send the error report and restart SETIDriver.  It happens again
and
again.

I have run this same setup for the past four years without a hitch.
Any
ideas
what my problem is.  FWIW, I use a Cache size of six (6).
