Berkeley is having connection issues right now.

If it does then stop Classic, they will

interfere with each other and neither will work very well. Do NOT run

"work" tab then come back here and post what the error messages are in
the "messages" tab.

A screen load of them - each one as meaningless as the next.

I am kind of under the weather right now and my clairvoyant abilities
seem to be down right now. Maybe a cut and paste would be more
helpful?

Sorry about that - patience with this is starting to wear a bit thin.

Here's a selection of messages...

Here it is say that it has been trying to download files and they have
failed.

It is not recognizing that the files were completly downloaded and is
trying to download them again.
At this point I might download a newer version and install it right
over the top of the older version, just make sure you stop Boinc from
running and it should be fine, and it will then download any needed
files and should start processing units.

Extremely useful and helpful.

Not.

Actually it was.
